THat is a nice one! I wish I would find one. But that is very nice and red. Any d/d or variety? What is that scratch thing going from his head to his ear?

Are my eyes deceiving me or Do I see an RPM?

oh guys I am so horrible at spotting DD and rpms. the mm is thicker on the top then the rest but I don't see any lines that would show splitting. there is a die crack going from the top of his head to the first "T" in trust, but there is no premium for that as I just learned. I don't really see anything odd about it, but I really, really am not good at spotting anything other then MD and PMD and die cracks, lol. But I have been looking for a long time to find a wheatie like this and I am so happy I finally got one!

This one is awesome, never thought I would find a wheatie in this condition. I have 2 1959 that are in better condition then this one with just a couple small scratches but they have luster and shine like they are brand new! so now I'm adding this one to that collection, all 60's in this shape with three small dates as well. my week has been made
