Looks like a MAD.Can you get a close-up by LIBERTY and more in-focus? Would have to see the edge for the railroad rim opinion.

I notice "railroad rim" (just like Cud)is being misused allot on ebay. The nick name referrs to a partial collar strike on the edge of the coin. One side of the coin has a larger edge diameter than the other giving the appearance of a flanged railroad wheel. It is not the double rim effect on the obverse or reverse. If this is what you are referring to then it is not a railroad rim.

Pyrob & John, I'm switching to a new cam today. I am guilty of buying into the ebay hype. I too, believed it involved the edge only, but thought I was mistaken, with the huge (I mean alot) amount of erronious listings.
