    Here is the best find from the just finished quarter hunt - Been looking for one for a long time! And it's in great condition for a 26-year-old coin as well; hard to find these west of the Mississippi in any condition, let alone this nice!

    Glad you found one. I have been fortunate enough to find 2 of these in circulation. Both in nice shape like yours is. Congratulations on your find.

    Neat. I have little interest in moderns and die varieties myself, but even I have heard of this variety, and finding one while CRH is definitely cool.

    Hey. If it gets you a few more bucks, you know?
    I love variety coins myself. :)
    Here's one. Can you dig it??

    I don't have much interest in the variety on that coin, but as a decent Shield nickel type coin, I like it.

    Good evening, came across this today. Would this count as a spitting horse or am I experiencing a case of pareidolia?

    How about half a spit? Seriously, we would need a variety expert for this one.

    The OP example is a very strong one. I have 3 of these all at different stages, light, medium and strong. I almost tossed the light one back because it is very minimal. In the #6 post I am not sure. But if that area by the A is raised, then it looks like a partial.
