<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mcgrover, post: 145650, member: 5929&quot;]Well since I started this, let me thank everyone for posting. To sum it up: Black Beauties are rare but everyone here has one or more, and paid less than I did. They are caused by heat, planchet washing, cobalt, or by a guy who makes them up in his basement using a Gilbert chemistry set. They are created at the mint and can be pulled from proof sets, or they are created by some other gentleman who might be pulling a fast one on all of us, except there&#039;s a book that says they&#039;re made in &#039;58 and &#039;59, except for the one from &#039;64 that the moderator posted a pic of. Do I have that right? I&#039;m kidding of course. This is more info than I&#039;ve ever gotten , and I may check out that book. mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
