Ah, but a 1922 is worth much more. You sure it was that date? How much of the D mintmark could you see?
Unusual to see early ones in circulation! Just think, that '21 has been circulating for a century!
Wow, coingrats. I have never gotten a Merc in circulation.
Before [IMG] [IMG] After [IMG] [IMG] Honestly, I don't see much difference, but if you say so...
The 20c would be cool with the pinback replaced. Except when worn as a brooch, you couldn't see the mintmark on it.

Ouch. But that's still a Bust dollar! I can understand holeys. I try to avoid ugly, but sometimes you've gotta do what you've gotta do, as...
I wouldn't think so? I needed no photo documentation aside from a photocopy of the CNG listing that mentioned the pedigree to get that Julian II...

Extra crud on the reverse, is all. The beard is as it is supposed to be. There's a whole thread about neckbeards, as it happens.
Is there a punch for the mortarboard cap? It might be easier to just put the heart in the field instead of around the date. Maybe right above or...
I like it that one need not be uptight about cleaning or minor problems (aside from the holes, of course). It feels like an old fashioned way of...
Interesting. That's the first dealer I've seen who's chosen to specialize in this niche. You just cost me some money. ;)
