Hi, I used the ctr button and wheel on my mouse to zoom in even better and it looks bonifide to me.
I can see the die gouges on the right side steps and they also look correct.
Makes me wonder how a coin of significance like that could circulate for so long and not get nabbed.
Wish I had one. It is on my want list.
Good for you!
Happy Holidays!

I compared it to the one in "Strike it Rich with Pocket Change" and it pretty much solidified it for me. I love these OMM's. Not too up on the diagnostics of this particular OMM. In the above quote, are those part of the diagnostics on this coin

My thoughts as well. With all the collectors out there.

Vermont, I believe that there are a couple short gouges just off the right steps which shoot upward at about a 1 o'clock angle. I see them on yours when I zoomed in.
I think a good picture of it can be found in the CherryPickers Guide Fivas Stanton.
Congrats!

Thanks! I do know this is much scarcer than the 54 S/D & 55 D/S.
