Glad to be of service. Good luck with your treasure hunt. :) Maybe you can return the favor-- like helping me to figure out the values of some...

It's been worse-- I've found a few Barber and Mercury dimes with a big semi-circular gash in them. Those old counting/rolling machines were really...
Is that a bit of rub on his cheekbone and jaw? I voted AU-58, on the off chance that my eyes aren't deceiving me.
