    Yes, which is why I quantified "just looking at the first photo" implying that I knew there were more... I guess I should have been more specific. I had a good laugh seeing it as the primary photo on an RPD. On face value it looked like a really, really poor posting.

    My thoughts exactly.

    I'm trying not to feel insulted here. The funny part is seeing a D literally drawn in on a coin listed as an RPD. It just looks funny. I know it's not actually drawn on there, it just made me laugh when I saw the first photo.

    Considering I have done similar to help the buyer see where a doubling, die clash, etc was, I didn't really find it funny. I thought it was pretty normal. Oh well

    Of course it's normal. But not as the lead image.

    Thank you, that was my point!

    It's completely normal and quite reasonable, (no offense to Seattlite) even for the lead photo.

    Unfortunately, we all can't be so perfect.

    My goodness, is everyone just having a rough morning? If you don't think it funny, no need to be so dour, just move on and go comment on some other thread.

    Some people seek humor to leaven the typical harshness of life; others avoid it for the opposite reason. Never quite figured out what makes those folks tick. Laughter extends life as much as exercise.

    I thought you were talking about the million dollar note. That's funny! Other than that, it's very well done listing and a nice coin IMO.

    I chuckled at the first image as well but understood the intent. You have to admit that if that were the only image that it would be funny and typical of some of the more ridiculous listings that show up from time to time.

    That's what I was pointing out. At first glance, I had a good chuckle, then I saw that it was just trying to point it out and there were more photos. I was just trying to have fun with the post and bring out a few smiles.

    Well, there certainly is a D over that D, alright. :) I got a good chuckle, too.
