Pulled out of my latest bag. Mint mark alignment is spot on, and the die gouge between "In God" is visible. Overlay image used for comparison is from Copper coins.

Interesting purplish toning(I think whole bag comes form whitman folder pop outs).

Probably Stage B by variety vista.

That's a nice RPM in the earlier stages. Gets pretty blurry by the end of the die stages though. Yours really pops!

I agree a nice pick up for you @shel. Despite the circulation wear, the underlying mm is still quite visible.

Shel, I got your message and replied. But note that selling through ebay I have to add 10% for their fees. Just say no to the deal I offered on the ebay message and PM me here for a better price.

Thanks all. Getting 2 in 22 of the 1938 S that were in the bag is interesting. Yes I keep track of exactly how many of each are in every 5K bag I search. Someday will have a statistics problem for my child to solve. "Is this bag previously searched?" "How much more common are the coins in one bag vs another?"
