Jon K Pillar of the Community United States 723 Posts	Posted 02/17/2015 12:15 am Ran across this on ebay and passed on it as I did not believe it to be an S/D. It was represented as a 1950 S/D. Nobody got robbed, it sold for melt. But now I am wondering if it might have been tooled in a poor attempt at deceit. Any thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Jon K Pillar of the Community United States 723 Posts	Posted 02/17/2015 12:36 am I find this. The open ends of the "S" are closed. Leading me to the theory that I am entertaining. Report this Post to the Staff

I thought those marks on the MM looked suspicious and it stuck in my mind. I have no idea why the seller would think it was an S over D. But no one was fooled, it went for $5.00 or so.
