How can one "make" an error? An error is something that is done by mistake not intentionally. I would not want to spend my money on an "error"...
It looks to me like there is no MM. I was incorrect. It should be just above the tip of the tail. No MM means minted in Philly. This is most...
And now for a better look at the S. The focus is not the best but you can definitely tell it is an S[ATTACH] You only showed a photo of the...
I hope you don't mind but I cropped your photo so people could have a better look at this. [ATTACH]
Another great example to put in a book. Still worth only face value. This is the 1982D Copper Large date. Now that you have both a large and small...
