I received a set a couple of days ago from Bill Fivaz for examination and they confirmed my worst fears. The coins represent nothing but trivial die gouges (or possibly the closely related die dent type of die damage).</p><p><br /></p><p>They are prominent -- more so than average -- but they are NOT &quot;extra leaves&quot; by any stretch of the imagination. They are die gouges (or again, possibly die dents) with an estimated value of no more than $10 each by standards usually attached to such items. This value assumes that coins would have been promoted as what they are but as we can see they have not and as such we have seen what is generally considered a relatively minor flaw promoted up to being worth hundreds of dollars by using misleading nicknames.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/2004DWiscDieGouges.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/2004DWiscDieGouges.htm" rel="nofollow">2004-D Wisconsin</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
