I am Howard Spindel, shield nickel expert. Very interested in the "ghost image" SN. If you need any help figuring this out, please contact me. I maintain a variety reference called SNV. If this turns out to be anything significant, I would love to discuss documenting it in SNV. Please visit my website below. Regards, Howard www.shieldnickels.net
Mark on another board you asked for proof of HA issues... You seem very nice and although we have never met I get the feeling you can see. Anyway.. look at a 1908 $5 MS 67 bought around 8/13 in Chi, I think and sold in NYC in 12/13 or maybe never. Any way it was flipped while I owned it. Let me know what you think Lafittecoincompany@gmail.com
You're probably right. The reed mark jumped out at me. I am used to MS63 $20s with minor ticks, but of course gold is different than silver.
Mark the upgrade is a free bee that Rick lost a bet that me using my name could get Star note coin on my own
