<p>[QUOTE="coleguy, post: 470074, member: 9167"]I like edge lettering, but like what was mentioned earlier, the moderns seem to have skipped any quality that the early coins had in regards to this method. Why is it I can clearly read the edge lettering of a 185 year old VF bust half without getting a headache, but a 2008 Pres dollar in BU right out of a fresh roll I can barely read and the lettering is pathetically inscribed with little detail or attention to quality?</p><p>Guy~[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
