That’s really cool. I like it. A tip o’ the hat to that Secret Service guy.
Thanks for the prize receipt update, and congrats again. I think that’s my favorite lot this year.
That is a truly remarkable CRH find. Congrats! Not only old, not only silver, but scarce, too. (CRH= coin roll hunting, for anyone unfamiliar...
That is correct!
Wow, how often do you check it?
Not really a restrike, per se, so much as just a different way of putting the dates on the coins. The "main" date on the obverse below the bust...
Yeah, that series date and "secret" date in the star indicating the actual year of issue are an interesting feature of certain Spanish coins....
I'm gonna say 65 RD. Nice 'un, regardless of whatever the number on the label turns out to be.
Pretty solid scoop for six bucks, though! Mine was considerably more expensive. ;)

Still have it, somewhere, wherever my old detector finds album is. I never sold any of my dug coins. I'm rather sentimental about those.
Whoo, that's a sweetie! I've only owned one Oregon Trail commemorative ever. Also a 1926-S, with AU details. [IMG] Cleaned. I did the cleaning...
Wonder what one could find to spend one cent on, nowadays. I used a one-cent postage stamp, tonight, to round out the postage on my latest...
Yep, solid buy for twenty bucks, I'd say.
It does look like a 1965 clad to me, as well.
I'd certainly love the opportunity to go diggin' in some Classical crapper, if you'll forgive the alliterative description of that.
Got an SBA as a quarter, eh? Nice! And therein lay one of the biggest nails in the coffin of the SBA, and probably the reason they went on to...
Corrosion of some kind (enviro damage), but I liked the inclusion of a "leprosy" option, so I went with that. ;)
Love that Silenos portrait. The turtle ('scuze me- tortoise) is just icing on the cake.[IMG] Something about those grapes in that beaded square...
That's kind of ridiculous, but eh, whatever. I guess the COA is protected, now. LOL
