    With all the hype and furor about the "detached leg" bisons, I thought I share this recent find and named it in honor of OldDan ;)

    Best I can figure, judging from the revese, this poor die was the victim of a die clash and an over zealous die polishing to remove it. I couldn't get a clean shot of the reverse, but you can see where there was heavy polishing between the columns where you'd usually see the details of a die clash on a Lincoln. Poor Lincoln........the die polisher even tried to wipe out his eye.

    Enjoy ;)
