I had never even heard of or seen the type, which goes to show how totally out of touch I am with modern issues! :rolleyes:
Is that the same David Lawrence as in the prominent dealer? I've bought a lot from them over the last year. This rather modest Barber dime...
Neat how prominently the overdate on the 1810/09 shows, despite the low grade.
