[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 7923859, member: 101855"][USER=24314]@Insider[/USER] has his opinion; others are allowed to have theirs. Implying that others are ignorant or stupid because they don’t agree with him is counterproductive to the learning process. Continuing in this vein does not further the education process. Nobody has all of the answers … nobody. It’s an incredible sign of arrogance when someone says they do. If I were considering this coin, I would first view the whole piece. I would see this area and look at it with a 10x glass. Then I’d look at the whole thing again. We don’t have that here. If the area is a struck-through, it would blend in with the rest of a 125+ year old coin.
