[IMG] If the ribbon and the curl are merged ( same level) you are looking at a VF30. If the ribbon is still separated ( higher level) then EF40....

Speedy, here is a link on another forum reporting that the QX5 type factory software doesn't work with vista...

Mark, I would say MD from the photos. Here is the best site for copper coins. The URL is for the search page. Just fill in the checkboxes and you...
Do you have a better photo of the "7"? Especially the small blob/bar above the angle. Some of the smaller DDO for 1970S show a small bar that is...
It is so difficult to distinguish sliders by photos, but I think the marks are bag rather than wear also, but wouldn't want to say without seeing...
