Cool story at Coin World. I doubt they'll ever be able to prove it definitively, but it would be cool if they could. http://www.coinworld.com/news/us-co...d-message-on-1869-seated-liberty-dollar-.html
Very interesting piece. Unfortunately sometimes without a good provenance, these pieces of history will never be confirmed. I had a very nice engraved Seated Dollar that I'm sure had a sad story to tell, buy I could never find any information.
