Yes they are because all of the late cartwheel issues had an opposite die axis.

:) That's right. If the obverse and the reverse of a coin are 180 degrees "out", that is called coin allignment. If the obverse and the reverse of a coin are both the same way round, it is called medal allignment. Therefore your cartwheel penny is in coin allignment.

Oli,

For your information Oli, I didn't refer to that topic that we had a few weeks ago. All Master JMD did was ask, so I decided to tell him about it, that's what you would have done, I'm sure.

No, we had changed to a different topic inside a topic. I thought the engine could search posts as well as topic titles. Oh well, well done william :rolleyes:

Master JD and coke (;)): You should be ok if you adjust the filters to search in all forums and messages from all users.
