Welcome to C.T., Marites. I'm not sure what you mean by "extra tail." Also, the "E Pluribus Unum" appears correctly struck; what are you seeing...
Thanks, John. The Stone Mountain half is one of my favorite classic commemoratives, in spite of the fact that I'm a "Northerner," born and bred...
Congrats! Wow, it took you only five years to hit 30,000; way to go! Steve
Happy Anniversary, ACH! Yes, I'd like my name in your hat. And if I win, like @cpm9ball, it will go to a YN that I already have in mind. After...
