GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8939 Posts	Posted 03/02/2020 06:06 am John, the /18 is the first two digits. The punch was backwards and upside down. Report this Post to the Staff

numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11911 Posts	Posted 03/04/2020 9:35 pm This came in. There was a little surprise. The seller was Henry T. Hettger, a well known numismatic researcher and collector. Along with the coin, he sent a note he typed on a manual typewriter. Sometimes, when collecting coins, you run into small kindnesses that one would likely not otherwise encounter in the 21st century. Like jpbone suspected, the coin looks beautiful in hand.
