[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 5472715, member: 90692"][USER=117055]@RabbiSchmooley[/USER] ...as a CT member, you must be open to [I][B]constructive criticism. [/B][/I]To be fair, though, you do seem to be handling that contained in some of the responses, constructive or not. You have to expect some in every post. As far as the coin is concerned, here is some more. The flattening of the lettering and numerals is due to normal wear. No one knows how long the coin circulated before being removed from circulation, but I would hazard a guess of at least 20-25 years. If die markers have been obliterated by wear (or damage), there is no way to confirm doubling or die pairs. Extra thickness is one of the harder attributes to find and confirm, but keep in mind it is [I][B]minor [/B][/I]doubling. In this case, IMO...the wear flattening is mimicking your perceived thickness. I hope you take this as constructive, this my intent. Don’t expect every member in every post to tell you that...Spark[/QUOTE]
