I agree with weird hit on the 1947. Same thing happened at Abe's chin.
Well, Sheldon also invented a scale for "valuing" people based on their body type, and believed in eugenics. "At the time", people thought that...
Generally speaking I don't understand any of this anyway. It's like owning stock with a fancy wrapper, and then you take it to auction where you...
Can you post images of the full coin, from directly overhead, with both sides properly oriented? I think that would help. It's not as rare as it...
To me the spacing of TAT in States says it's Close AM, as far as my understanding goes. If the A is centered, it's Wide AM, and if the A is closer...

Don't get me started on the Barber dime transition variety thing again! For something different, here's the first and last. The 1892 has a cool...
I have a similar thing on a 1964-D 25c found in change a few years ago. It's a worn/damaged die at the MM, not MD or RPM. That's what David Lange...
