CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12835 Posts	Posted 10/28/2015 11:15 pm I'm not good at identifying proof coins - why do you say it's proof, CHD? The fields don't look particularly cameo, but if it's been circulated that's understandable I guess. Also the strike looks kinda mushy. Again, I am terrible at identifying proofs that don't have an "S" on them. Trying to learn here. Report this Post to the Staff

WashQuartJesse Valued Member United States 173 Posts	Posted 11/04/2015 02:11 am Nice reference Indian. I tend to look for a space between the E and S of states first. The definition of the reverse eagle's wing feathers usually seals it. If you've ever photo'd these documents regularly it really does become easier. Report this Post to the Staff
