[ATTACH] I bought this about 6 months ago and looks better in hand - I'll post in hand pics later today...
I doubt the environmental damage and have quite a few OMS myself from this era. Was the OP coin from the London Coins auction?
Wow, that is a good find. I have only seen the coins in the sets. I wonder how that contract came to be in that time and place that was the...
I had hoped people would be a bit more interested. Those FM mintmarks/monograms are very hard to spot on the 1c and 5c coins
Recently I was researching up the matte uncirculated issues of the Franklin Mint from the 1973-1977 period when I came up with one of those bits...
Yes, good spot there. Dies were hand punched and many "adjustments" were made. Nice look, I'm going to check my own thanks to you.
Yes, OGP wunderkind! Quite scarce is this set as well.

Ah, didn't post - picture did not come out. Where did you find your coin, and does it have bag marks as though it had been in with other coins or...
I will have to remove them - in person they do not look as bad as pictures...
Mintage is not recorded in any source and not in sets - probably 20-30 pcs is best guess. Post pictures please!
IMO, that is a real eagle and not the sorry heraldic eagle that had been on the Silver American Eagles, or some of the other atrocities we have...
Just wanted to share pictures of a very rare set, or so it certainly seems. This is the only Matte (M) Barbados 1975 set that I have seen, mintage...
