GDJMSP, I had not noticed that longacre doubling occurs mostly on both sides. Although I remain open to the possibility, a quick parusal of my...
Do you really think he would get that much from a dealer?
Neither, that's longacre doubling, common on IHCs...Mike [edited to add: I see someone beat me to the punch]
That's a tough one. Looks to me an MS coin, but what MS grade was assigned... Although surfaces seem to be a much higher grade, due to the...
