I recently saw an E-Bay auction for this "1912" Liberty nickel.

I thought I might have seen an "S", so I decided to win the auction (for about $2.50 shipped).

What do you think? I'll let you know in a few days if I got lucky!

If that's a 1912S you win the Cherry Picker Of The Month award!

Haha thanks! It's a long shot, since the mintage is so low, but I figure it was worth the $2 in curiosity alone!

I'm trying to see the D ... but my eye continues to hope for an S.

If so ... in VG08 that is a significant score!

Show us some better pics when it shows up.
