<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1109994, member: 29239"]b.bodie I know how to settle this discussion about your coin and find out for sure what it really is.

Mr. Wexler has been authenticating coins for me for 30 years or maybe longer and he is the best and most honest error coin person that ever lived in my opinion and you can trust him to take good care of your coin and send it back to you if he requests to see it. Mr. Wexler's email address is; <a href="mailto:jwex@comcast.net">jwex@comcast.net</a></p><p> </p><p>the problem with sending coins to get them attritubeted and graded thru a grading service is that about all of them do not have many error experts on their staff. sometimes they do ask a experts opinion and sometimes they just take a stab at it. If I have a unusal looking error coin that is not a common error even if I'm sure what it is I always get a experts opinion of my opinion and send the experts opinion with my coins to the grading companys so they can already know what the error or variety is. This makes it easier for the grading companys. </p><p> </p><p>bodie if you do ask Mr. Wexler please let us folks on here know what he thinks about your coin. If you send him a photo be sure to mention to him that the dot before the word unum is also struck into your coin . the dot is important because it tells us which end of the word UNUM that we are looking at.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
