    Not the oldest, but one that fascinates me. 1/000? The lighting must have been really bad.

    Same way I believe some people get some phenomenal scores: I think somebody dipped their hands into somebody's collection.

    Great thread idea to get one looking back! Off the top of my head, this is my oldest.
    I just recently got it and posted it in the 'recent acquisitions' thread.
    Best regards.

    I think half dimes are really cool. Sadly I only have one :(

    I JUST found it in my penny rolls that I was going through! I know it's not that old but I'm brand new at doing this so this is a HUGE win for me :)
