I think he was confused by the word "loop". What Jim is referring to is the tappering off of the pen after the "o" is completed. Joe D did not taper off like that at the end of his signature.

He is also right on the "." above the "o", that is one thing non-Joe examples never have

The "dot above the o" is the dot of the "i."
