Ah. So, why did you post the link?
Or, to summarize: "I made enough lucky bets to buy a house, so I KNOW BEST." So, at the end of the 1980-82 fall-back from the Hunt Brothers...

OK, that rules out anything like the planchet defect I mentioned. From the photo, it looks like maybe the ridges on the edge aren't as full in...
Wow. That hurts. :(
I think it's a dumb rule under current conditions. Heck, I'd argue for a government subsidy to anybody willing to get Zincolns out of the country....
