    Pulled this out of the change today. Pretty good shape for being in circ. for 53 years. Wheat ears look real good. Little hit one the O in one. What you guys/gals think?

    Looks like a doubled die or is it blurry?

    Looks like it's a scan, and scans give that look sometimes...

    Yeah Rock, I wish. Eddie's right, it's a scan and probably a little off.

    I'll say AU, that's a nice strike for a 55. Most of them I see are a tad mushy, that's a nice one. :thumb:

    Phoenix :cool:
