I normally pass along the things I spot on the bay just to keep peace at home but this one was cheap and it's been a white whale of mine for years. Though I now understand why. If a coin in this condition isn't at the right angle to the light then the RPM just doesn't show up.
I got lucky bay listing was lit correctly. Here it is https://www.ebay.com/itm/1919-S-San....m2749.l2648

Wow, very good eye! It's so faint in the sellers pic I might not have even spotted it. I agree it is quite a difficult variety to find. Congrats!

Sweet pick on a hard to spot variety. Congrats
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Thanks for the kind words all ! I wish that I could say this was the first time I took a stab at picking this variety from ebay.
Rather, I know that I have a few 19-S wheats laying around that were acquired in hopes that some little flicker in a digital image was the rpm. The price of this one was what made me take a chance . I couldn't go but so wrong !
