Even tho this coin has been whizzed she shows fantastic detail. The over mint mark is a bit obscured by a unfortunate bag mark but shows as a ghost "c" to the right of the mint mark. An additional identifying mark is the prominent die crack that runs south of America.

I don't even know where to start congratulating everyone on their amazing coins! I am blown away!

(A 1795 Half Dollar AND a 1795 Dollar?)

I can't WAIT to see everyone's top choice!

Has Johnny found so many 1916's that he is just giving them away now? Sign me up.

1916 SLQ's have certain characteristics to look for, when the date is not readable.
