Hondo Pillar of the Community United States 1211 Posts	Posted 07/05/2015 6:07 pm That's why I put the question mark... If it's Wisconsin ore, it's upside down. Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15485 Posts	Posted 07/06/2015 05:48 am Concur with 1936 Wisconsin Territorial Centennial Half Dollar ... and the image shown is indeed upside down relative to how we normally view the coin.

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15485 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 7:08 pm Concur with 1925 Norse Medal ... issued as both 'thick' and 'thin' varieties. I've often considered this the 51st type coin for the classic silver commemorative set ... designed by the master James Earl Fraser. The image angle is again a bit tricky ... inverted from how we normally view the coin. My lovely lowball (thick) example ... PCGS lowball top-pop. Amazing that any pocket piece can be this worn out! 1925 Norse Medal (Thick) PCGS FR02 David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
Mraderm946 Valued Member United States 201 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 8:43 pm I would have had no idea it was Norse. Good job guys. Report this Post to the Staff

Which is why I overlooked it when trying to determine from which of the 50 (not 51) this image was taken!
