PMD. A reeding mark from the reeded edge of another coin hitting JFK on the chin.
I'd buy it for that much, so yes, you could recoup your eight bucks. Shoot, I'd give you ten. There's your eight bucks, a buck to ship it, and a...
Added some links. Still compiling. This is a work in progress. We're only allowed one link in our signatures so mine leads to this index now....
