I even tried looking directly for them after I looked closely at the photos -- they&#039;re invisible to the naked eye.

I&#039;ve had it since I was a kid, and it&#039;s got great character. I still can&#039;t get over how clean the fields are (minus the lamination, of course). I just bought a 1943-S cent which is a drop-dead gem, and it&#039;s not as clean as this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
