(Roll Searching) The wear by the U & M of Unum and what seems to be extra lines by the wheat stalks on the reverse seem strange. The finish also looks weird. Is this all die wear etc and md's as usual? Edited by chuckster 125 10/21/2008 5:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

If you do, place the coin in a small bowl with vinegar but cover the bowl with plastic wrap so your home doesn't end up smelling like the vinegar. Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff
