Wow, a cookin' coin collector...confusing or not, that's impressive, Sal.:D Bruce
I've got to check that out I've got to check that out. I've always been curious about "so-called-dollars" but never knew much about them. I'm...
They'll probably notice, Sal, but they'll think they're counterfeits. How many times have we seen that before...new designs can be confusing to...
Generally hoarding is a bad thing, but when it comes to coins it's an admirable trait. Congratulations !:) Bruce

Without looking closer I'd say a 55. A little rub here an there. Bruce
Chop marks SOMETIMES add value, but not always. The same with counterstamps. They're always considered PMD because they were added after leaving...
Counterfeit! Too many questionable areas. Bruce
Could be, but If the person was 35 in 1973 they'd be one day younger than dirt today....like me.:D Bruce
