Looked through traildies.com and did not see this one. I will just hold it for BJ later, but there are a few "somethings" I am not sure about because if they are trails, they are short. Odd thing about this one is, there are no trails on the date, liberty or LB. Some of the trails seem to be at odd angles (degrees). I do not understand how the degrees are measured, and would like to learn if someone would like to do some teaching
Nice trails... Obv/Rev and multi directional... Think of the coin as a circle... 0 and 360 are at the top (Rim above W)... Also think of a round clock face... 0 and 360 is at 1200 - 90 is at 3 - 180 is at 6 - 270 is at 9 - Clock wise rotation... The center of the coin is the center of the clock (Where the hands would attach)... Hope that helps some my concentration level is down this morning!!!

Thank you Roger, so I found a compass (attached) I know how to read N S E W but never have understood the degrees thing. I will look at BJ's examples and compare them to the compass and try to figure this out.
See if you can sit the coin on the face of the compass... Top of the coin at 360/0 and bottom of the coin at 180... That should give you a good idea on how it works... Do not worry if you can not get it rite off the bat... The average person has to be shown 5 times how to do a task properly before they can do it properly themselves... Some are faster learners and others are slower (ME )... That info comes from an early 1980s training study conducted by the Department of Defense!!!
