Aside the utter crud one can often find in the Stack's 57th Street slabs, no real reason to worry about authenticity. Anything from die wear to...
Not from those pics. :P
I imagine they chose to get hardcore and considered the two nicks left of center on the center band to be "interruptions." The color is glorious.
OK, I looked at this thing and saw a D1 reverse. Couldn't figure out what you were on about. :wacky: It'd have to be 3FS1, without the displaced...

Insider. I have little use for those who do not allow fact to influence their opinions. If it quacks, it's a duck. The mint mark on your coin is...

I'm gonna leave the Walker be lest I embarrass myself. :) Both Morgans are excellent strikes for New Orleans. Both are very likely DMPL but...
I guess the question is, then, if the two mint marks are the same size, how is the one a "Small" and the other a "Large?" Is the one below a...
Not trying this on a 5" phone screen. :) See you in about 6 hours.
He's shooting with a relatively low-end 5MP smartphone (EXIF data is still present), and the images ain't bad for that. :) I'm also on the "high...
