I'll try again.
I have two 1800 S-195s which were quickly dismissed as S-194s by attributers of some repute. After reviewing the findings and the coins, I must...
Just for your information, it is the S-212 with the die cracks on the bottom (not PMD) and the top of the lettering pushed up against the top....
It would be interesting to know if that includes both the copper and copper plated Zinc. Does that keep it out of the 10 Billion plateau if they...

Learning is never stupid. Failure to learn is. As much as I love attribution, I still make mistakes. That's why I always seek verification. I...
