    Wood 23 is a confirmed Blacksmith based on my recent investigations.=20
    I did a study recently showing that the dies for this Wood 29=20
    Blacksmith did break severley in Troy, NY initially as the break seen=20
    in Wood 29-a appears on a Troy storecard ALSO and also appears on a=20
    NY HTT thick flan. This broken and used die for both the obverse and=20
    reverse of Wood 29-a was then tranferred to the Lower Canada=20
    operation or the other geographical operation for the sake of=20
    argument at this time and Wood 29-a was struck on a thin Blacksmith=20
    flan using these discarded dies. When the obverse die broke leaving=20
    the reverse die remaining (from memory - Taylor is at work) Wood 29=20
    was created with all the other Wood types having this design.
