AJ got me started with his example above ......

This one is similar inasmuch as the line crosses the end of the reed, but it also has a smaller one to the left of it. Along of course with the absence of the second major one in AJ's.

This one is a stronger line, but more to the right of the reed.

To finish it off, a pair left and right of the reed end along with another pair indicated by the arrows.

So what were they doing to the dies in 2006? This makes at least four different examples with at least one line near the end of that reed ....... how odd. :scratch_one-s_head:

I assume the 50c with all the doubling is a 2007 AJ (I guess maybe a 2008 or 2009 could also fit the bill).

I wonder what the 2015 50c is going to do for us when the 2014 has given us so much to look out for :laugh2:

And what is that funny little circular thing to the right hand side under the reed on the 2008?
