Thanks . . . even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. .

There aren't many coins like that in any series.
Those 100 year old dealers are pretty hard to find . . .
In the seller's "bio", he / she writes, "What I found will be slowly listed here as I continue to make trips to the locker." I think it should...
Very late to this party, but AU Details.
This very high quality contrivance scares the daylights out of me, as I'm pretty sure I would have missed the fact that this is not a genuine...
Yup, I'd grade it XF.
I found angling the coin enough to show the "Omega" standing proud of its surface a challenging task. Unfortunately, I think this is about the...

Aww, yer takin' all the fun outta this . . .

That pattern at the rim has the right look, but I'm unconvinced. That pattern exists only on the obverse side, and I can't see how it would...
I've looked at all US Classic commems between 1925 & 1928, (both silver and gold), and find no match there either. Foreign coins are my last best...
