Going through my bag of 5,000 coins I have found about 15 of these so far. Nice full die chip in "R" of "Liberty". [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
@paddyman98 Very nice Ed. But what's especially nice is putting a face, voice and perspective on what you do. Thank you for sharing and hope you...
I'm certainly not one to speak with any authority here, but I received several of these repros in a bag of mixed foreign coins. They are quite...

I think maybe Salvador is joshing us?
No, none so far. Was hoping tho. Around 160 minor doubled dies though. That was a treat.
I only have my scanner and am terrible at photos but this was a nice find. In hand there are a full 8 bays showing. Here you can see six I...
