[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 6450295, member: 105098"]wow I wasn't sure you'd still be around! :) post was a long time ago. These new pictures are far superior to the ones I had found on a previous post, and I tend to agree with you on your assessment, the placement is too far from the leaf for #1, if anything with flattening it would appear even closer I'd think. I still think it's likely worth the shot, just not an expensive TPG to find out for sure. You can really only get so far with pictures. I'd like to inspect the rim, the edges around the mintmark under high magnification and do the rotation thing myself because the rotation thing can be difficult and inaccurate if eyeballed to get it right. Even if it's a fake it's likely worth something to someone, just not 16D prices. I'm not sure how selling them would work but people sell henning nickels frequently enough to make me think it's fine as long as you are clear about it and don't misrepresent it. Anyways, I look forward to hearing the results.[/QUOTE]
