Wow, that's a little too close for me. Any problems from exposure?

Not too much - 3 different types of skin cancer so far - so now I have regular on-going appointments with my VA Appointed Dermatologist to remove spots as they appear..

From least to worst
1. Basal cell carcinoma (that was on my ear)
2. Squamous cell carcinoma (on my arms)
3. Melanoma (a very small spot I caught very early on my forehead..) - This one is hard to spot, but they told me that it makes the skin feel rough like 'sandpaper'. so now I'm forever rubbing my head and arms for that roughness..

Sorry to hear that, Dearborn. I've had a couple of issues show up in the last few years that may be Agent Orange related. I was in an area that had been heavily sprayed so my VA doctor thinks I should file a claim.

Thank you, jbuck and Errers. Unfortunately, I have too many gaps to complete a set.

Thank you, jbuck. The silver Libertad mintage numbers are all over the place so the low number years are expensive if you can find them at all.

You should - the VA is finally recognizing Agent orange now.

very nice add G!

Thank you, Dearborn. I would like to find more early Libertads.

I've been giving a lot of thought to filing a claim. Well see.
