[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2545458, member: 36230"]Please do! That said, after spending a fairly considerable amount of time looking at what we have thus far, I am unable to convince myself I'm seeing anything other than a D. I certainly hope I'm wrong and it would be a pleasure to be so, but if you look closely at the style of the used S and compare, being sure to take your coin's condition into consideration, there are too many maybes, what ifs, and ifs needed in order to make it fit.
