CoinMasters,

Life is different after cancer. You are right. Everyday is a gift! I take so much more pleasure in the small things that I often never thought twice about. I got a dog for the first time in my life and she goes with me everywhere I go. So much joy!

LOL, Left, some of the worthless coins are the most valuable teaching tools! I still have my first example of Strike Doubling I found on the obverse of a Canadian 1967 cent. That goes back to 1980!

Ouch cancer is a beast, good to hear you came through it ken. Just wanted to say thanks for all you've been doing here. Now that I know your name your articles keep popping up when I'm researching coins. Most recently an article on the 2004-d Wisconsin extra leaves. Boy were you killin dreams for the guys who want to belive it was a nefarious design element. That must have been a wild ride for you when they were being discovered

Cascade,

Ya, I just have a different opinion of the cause of the "extra whatevers" but I think they are neat just the same. I still get folks coming at me about how much I just don't know about how this could have happened, mathematical probabilities stacked up against me, etc. Funny thing is that mathematical probabilities are stacked up on my side when you start taking about what is called "automation damage" in the stamping industry. Most scholarly mathematicians have never set foot in a stamping operation, much less been in one of 25 years so their take is skewed. Nonetheless, I've never claimed I know I'm correct. It has always been an opinion of cause that explains two similar shapes occurring in the same area on two different dies. I also have nothing against the variety as a collectible. I think they are neat!

"Extra Whatevers" ... I like it. I bet you've had some heated debates over it and probably still do. I found what looks like a leaf tip sprouting from the cheese but it looks more like a tone stain or something under mag. I'll post it when I get a chance
