    Nope. Summer only so no Winter Over bar. I was at Pole Station from 1 November 1968 until about 15 February 1969. Obviously I never saw the sun...

    Two Early Seated Half Dimes for the Collection

    Flynn has a boatload of guides out. I've got his 2¢, silver 3¢ and nickel 3¢ books. And I know there are more. That many makes me suspicious of...

    Two Early Seated Half Dimes for the Collection

    Paddy, is there a definitive reference for SL Half Dimes? I've got the Logan-McCloskey reference but that only goes through Capped Bust Half Dimes.

    Two Early Seated Half Dimes for the Collection

    Notations *816, *872, *775, etc.

    Just a guess but if the notation is "rare *816" I wonder if it's some sort of reference to a VAM variety.

    Grade me 1920-S WLH

    I can't disagree with you since I don't collect WLH's. But "remarkably strong for" is a relative thing. It's still weak compared to the intended look.

    Grade me 1920-S WLH

    Definitely a weak strike (weak left hand; gown lines missing). Focus not good enough to be definitive but low AU seems reasonable.
