[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 930563, member: 15929"]Well, I;m certainly impressed with what I'm seeing and would forward one of the coins off to either John Wexler or James Wiles. HOWEVER, I have seen similar thinks on Presidential Dollars where the lettering is "incused". Had these been "relief" letters, I'd be ecstatic but they are not. Incused lettering presents totally different response to die age which could be what is being viewed. Consider this: [IMG]http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u8/lcl1119/Presidential/Edge%20Lettering%20Anomolies/DSC07625.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u8/lcl1119/Presidential/Edge%20Lettering%20Anomolies/DSC07626.jpg[/IMG] It's a proof coin and looks cute, but not doubling. The real experts need to look at these coins folks so we can quit bashing each other's drinking glasses! :kewl:[/QUOTE]
