I couldn't decide which one I liked better, so I took them both. When I got home and really looked at them under magnification, I noticed the wheat stalk on the left side--on both, looks odd. Are they die cracks? They actually both look identical to each other. Any ideas? Report this Post to the Staff

But I think its a cool find to get a 2 fer! They usually dont show up in pairs! Mr Daughtrey would def know better though! Report this Post to the Staff
