Found this at a local antique shop that had a small coin area, this was in a box of about $5 worth of dimes and I was amazed when I found it. Not 100% sure if it is real yet, but there is a rotation from obverse to reverse.

Woohoo! I'll probably end up sending it into anacs soon. I'm in no hurry though, now it's just sitting in my album, with the rest of my full set, sadly no 42/41 over date, that I recently acquired on Craigslist.

Yeah, just received my USB camera in the mail today. So far, I'm very impressed with it! Also, this antique store has no idea what they have. For instance, well.. this coin, and a 1921 Peace dollar for $35, a 1870 indian head for $4, 1960-1964 proof sets for $18.. Not many people know about my little honey hole.

Great hit. Congrats! Back around 1993, I hung out at a flea market in Norfolk, Virginia. One day an old man came and he was selling coins. A friend of mine was first to go through the box of Mercury dimes. All the coins were in flips and they were 1 dollar each. In the box was a 1916D in AG condition. Before he left the flea market he sold the coin for 125.
