<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 62206, member: 112"]First of all realize that this could easily have been done 50 to 75 years ago so it stands to reason it would be evenly toned. Secondly understand that in my opinion they did not just add the S, but also the metal around it. Which explains the straight, squared off lines visible on 3 sides of the mint mark.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I hope I'm wrong for your sake - but I don't think I am. If you paid more than a small amount for this coin I would suggest you return it. Otherwise get it to somebody who knows so they can see it in person - in a hurry.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
