CD 162 - Type I, Mold G3

Color: Lt. Blue Aqua
Base Type: CDP:w

 

Features: Lettering is shallow, with flattened triangular edges. On front, there are a series of very faint circle blot-outs beneath LYNCHBURG, with a deeper indentation above G (see below). On reverse, MADE IN U.S.A. is very weak; the S is slanted slightly to the right. Mold number is very weak and often indistinct. This mold was reworked into a Type II, CD 162 II, Mold G3, reworked again into a Type III, CD 162 III, Mold G3, and then retooled with new lettering CD 162 III, Mold 3.1

 

Mold Number Location: On reverse centered below NO.
