I guess I like them because it is so noticeable. A not to harshly cleaned coin I paid 20 bucks for, a good deal in my book Thanks for looking ! Report this Post to the Staff

Can't see it in your picture, may be picture is to small for these old eyes. If it's there, nice hot 50 coin! If not, you may want to check out Vam37. Report this Post to the Staff

MorgansRmine Pillar of the Community United States 1219 Posts	Posted 08/16/2008 1:43 pm rockdude, draw a straight line from the neck V to the denticles and then a line from the left side of horizontal bar of 1 down to left side of vertical bar of 1 to denticles. This shows the 1 to be on the outer limit of normal. This coin is closer to being a near date than far. Far being on the right edge of the 3rd denticle from the neck V. Report this Post to the Staff
