dma110 New Member United States 28 Posts	Posted 12/20/2012 2:08 pm Was browsing through ebay looking for a Seated Liberty dime and came across this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/160941576866 It looks to me that some one took a 1861 and tried to turn the 1 to an 0. I just sent a queary to the dealer and asked them. Thought I,d get your thoughts on the matter Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 12/20/2012 2:44 pm Tough call from those photographs. I think whatever makes it look that way (I see what you're talking about) is overstated by the lighting. A bag hit could do that. Report this Post to the Staff
