It's very important to have in the title. * Edited by jessvc1 01/17/2023 1:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 01/17/2023 2:05 pm I don't see anything that would make me think "whizzed". "Wiped" on the obverse is a possibility but that would require a closer look. Report this Post to the Staff

jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 01/17/2023 4:50 pm I agree with Oldgrouchyguy and kanga, it looks wiped. It does seem to have some original surfaces remaining as seem by the die flow lines, and a whiz would remove 100% of original surfaces. Suffering from bust half fever.

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 01/17/2023 10:19 pm @jess, as you know, best practice is to only start one thread per coin. Can you please let me know if this is the same 1900 IHC from your other recent thread? If so, then I'll merge them. Thx.
