    Well, the one more/most noticeable aspect of the 1970-S small-date in the pic is the mint mark...the location...a bit off center not so much but mainly way up into the date, actually well above the nine-tail...one of the more radical of that sort that I've seen, excluding obvious error-anomalies, etc. As for the lax use and butchering of the English/language thing, CT has said at least once before to ignore it...admittedly hard for me...but if that's still the rule, so be it.

    Guys thanks for all the input I really appreciate it what you guys have come back and said has made me feel alot better about my self. Like I said before I don't mean nothing buy the way I write when I write it sounds perfect but I'm way off. I'm going to start getting to the point I'm so use of having to detail ever think I do as a speaker people look up to me so it hurts when you get down graded I am just some guy having fun in this hobby. It takes me longer to learn something than most I never thought there were this much about a coin in the first place but there is a lot to learn I'm willing I only have so much time. My real goal is trying to keep people sober I can't help everyone but if buy me speaking can help one person I've done my job. I don't get paid for this I love what I do I was right there were most of them people were at one time I heard a man talk one time and everything he said remind me of me I broke down in tears that night I felt like he was talking to me the hole time. I got my self clean I'm just doing what God wants me to do bring people in I have a brother that is really bad he died twice last week I offered him help and he just laughed at me. I pray that God will put it on his heart like he done me if I can get my self clean anybody can I was the worst of the worst if I can do it I know he can. All I can do is ask I have to remember remember my self and what I went through I changed my hole live around I don't even hang out with my brother but I love him very much he is my everything all I can do is ask he has to at least walk half way it is not a joke I've lost so many friends just this year I've lost count. So when I speak I don't play I'm there to get some one sober I have people to day walk up to me and said when they Heard my story it changed their life and that is what it is all about. I love this hobby with coins I do my best I try to show the best picture I don't get mad I just tell you why I write the way I write if you want to make fun of that you the one has to look in the mirror cause I done know what my problem is but you guys are good guys some just take it to a different level but I can handle it there is nothing I've not been through in my life I can't get over believe me you would have to walk my steps from a little kid with nothing to now my life is perfect God is good I think him every day for what he has done for me I'm grateful for what I do have I have a family that loves me no matter if I mess up or not just thought I would say thanks guys like I said I'm a speaker not a writer but I will learn you guys are done teaching me thanks again.

I'm sure I've thrown a few back that were good there is no doubt in my mind I have. I can't take pictures of every coin I find you guys would be mad as All get out I don't want that.

    Myself and many others will not get "...mad as All get out..." by your posting too many photos of coins. If anyone doesn't like it, they don't have to read the post. I like seeing what others found or bought. :)

    My self me to I like seeing what people find and specially if there roll hunting like I do just curious what the year is and what kinda of shape it is in. Hek I could show off some nice coins I have found in coin roll but I want do that but no body really says anything but you are right I get a attitude right real fast if I think someone is trying to make me look like a fool if they been through what I have in life they would not even be on my level most of these guys are jerks on here there jerks every day they can't stand there self I love life life is good to me if I never find nothing in the wild I'm still going to be all right if I let some of these people get to me I'm just like them and I'm not I'm better than them I learned that when I was a young boy.

    That is the site is all about is showing people what you have found I don't buy coins like that I might buy a bunch of silver coins I get them on a good deal but when it comes right down to it. Everything I have has come out of a roll I believe that is what it is all about the hunt I guess it's all right to buy some if that is what you want to do. But when you know there out there and find one in a roll just out of the blue I'm telling you it's a rush like this 95 I'm looking for it hard right now they had 500 thousand to go through that is a lot but not many eather but I figured it up probably one person out of thousands of people that even will even look so if someone has one it has went ever wear travel around the world. That is why were having such a time trying to find these coins they could be any were you have a better chance getting it from change from a store or something like that is were you will find it. See things have changed now every thing is cards not cash that is a big problem on finding these coins keep looking you will find it and sending pictures out they get mad they don't need to be own here they bought a few coins and think there important there not all ways right watch the ones tell you about your coin you will figure it out.

    It took many years of my life before I got sober i finally just got tired of the same life a grown man with nothing but a habbit I got sick and tired of being sick and tired. But I'm going to tell you something I can talk to her but until she is ready to quit she will never stop these drugs they got now are killing people there falling over like flyes around here and they want stop I don't know how many they have put in the ground you talk to your daughter ever day let her know that you love her and you are there if she ever wants to talk try not get mad at her just let her do the talking cause if you never been were I been you will not understand were she is. More than likely she is probably at the point its not the high no more it's just trying to get over the sick part of not have nothing I can tell you what you can do but it's the hardest thing in the world to do my family did it to me years ago it made me think a little different tough love you tell her you love her but you can't stay here no more that means no more money giving to her you have to cut her off I know it is hard I have a daughter that is 26 she is my first baby my everything a daddy girl now she is a herion addict in Cincinnati Ohio and she youse to be a model now I don't know her but All I can do is pray put it in gods hands I am scared every time the phone rings it's going to be my worse night mare I have a brother that just dyied twice last week took narcan to snap him out of it or he would be gone I just talked to him and told him I can get him a bed and get his head right he only laugh at me like I'm not that bad you died twice in one week yeah it's that bad. That is why I do what I do in every family some were they have some one that has a issue with drugs of some sort. I'm sorry you're daughter is on drugs but I'm glad you told me I will be praying for her and I don't even know her name but god done know he saved me I thought I was the biggest piece of crap that walk the streets I was wrong god has a plan for you son you will have your daughter back I just believe that like I said do your part just tell her how much you love her try to do it every day if it is buy phone or seeing her she wants help she just scared God will take that scared away from I grew up in the woods only a few people live were I grew up I was shy all throw school never would speak now I talk in front of 200 hundred people god is with me all the he never leaves me he is what gives me the write words to say I have talked in front of the governor of my state telling my store now I have my family back my least girl is going to start collage next year. I just had a grandbaby I'm a papaw I have 3 little ones now I would not miss this for anything in the world if I would not took the help when I did plus I was ready before I left to a rehab I stayed for 6 months before I left I was already becoming a speaker in front of 70 men they wanted to here me every day they said they never felt the way they felt when you talk its my country voice I'm very loud I don't even need a mike I believe in being loud and proud what this place done for me I've not look back I don't even think like that it changed my hole life around it didn't cost me a doallar you need some one to talk to just hit me up Bentley carpenter and I love this hobby I just found a nice 68s in nice shape I'm going to post it I don't care they can get mad I'm trying to learn this stuff

    You've had an interesting life. I've known a few people that had similar problems. Some pull themselves together and some never do. I hope you keep it together. As far as your brother offer as much help as you can but, it will be up to him if he is strong enough to get it together. My father was a WW 2 vet and he came home with PTSD. When I was young he was OK but, when his father died at 62 my father went down hill fast. I think my grandfather helped him hold it together. I think it took him 7 years to bring himself back. He never got over his PTSD but got it under control. He still had flashbacks when he was in his 90's. He lived with it until the day he died just short of turning 95. I ended up developing PTSD not because of war but caused by a situation I was stuck in and some serious injuries I had to deal with. I still have it but, I have it somewhat in control. I have good days and bad days. I use coin collecting as a way to relax. You could do the same thing. We are here for you. You the hobby as a way to relax.
