Cross-referenced as Cherrypickers: FS-C1-2007P-GW-901, CONECA: RDV-001 Comments: It has been suggested that the extra length of the third ray is from a die gouge. Close examination of the elongated third ray does not show any gouging to extend the ray. I would have to strongly disagree with the die gouge theory. Was it a deliberate manipulation of the design? We probably will never know, but it certainly is an interesting variety. The above photo shows the "Elongated Third Ray". The above photo shows the normal third ray.; Wexler Variety ID: 2007-P $1 GW WUFO-001.
