It looks like a comet, or Apollo crash landed at that speed.

I have Apollo on a coin, He still flies in the traditional Greek way, just look up in the sky on a sunny day. He is shown on a stater of Philip 11 of Macedon. Mine only shows his head. I think He was chosen for the gold stater, because it reminds us of the Sun.

The REAL Apollo, I think, has had a greater effect on Man's psyche than the Greek one!

Neat! I hope there are more out there. Do you think PMD or a genuine die problem?

I've not seen this identified as a variety either. But, then I haven't really been looking for them. Searching for 72 T-2s.

By the way, looks like that landing wasn't the first attempt. LOL

Yes, this is a die gouge and there should be more out there. I've been doing Peace vams for 9 years and am very familiar with them.

I wonder if the guys over at the Ike group are aware of this one. You may want to check with them.

Don't think they are, I've looked but didn't see anything. Someone with more "whiskers" than me should approach them though.
