Sure would like to have this one be a FSB, but not quite.

I know what you mean. That middle is the first place to go on almost everyone of them. I've always wondered if there could be a way to make that middle one look new again.

Yeah, but the obverse is better that a lot of really good FSB's that I have seen!

Seriously though, very nice coin!

Wonder if a person was good enough and had a really steady hand, with a Dremel, cut off blade, you could make that middle band look new.
