    The title says it all.. I can't think of anything during minting that could cause negative impressions but it's always good to get opinions. It was only $14. Meh

    if EVERY coin was perfect in every way it would be a very boring hobby. I like the dings and bangs in a few "cheap cost" coins just for the thoughts of where that coin has been to get those "scars"

    I like coins that look like they had to work for a living. Plus, anything made in 1943 is just beautiful.

    Why is 1943 so special? Were you made in 1943 Inspector?

    Pretty sure that's a textbook example of "rim ding".

    Cool Coin.

    I voted for livestock on a lark, only to find that 67% of the voters did the same.
    I'm smarter than I thought I was.....or maybe I'm just lucky !!

    One of my favorite designs... I like to think of the WL as the original silver eagle.

    Full-length figure of Liberty, the folds of the Stars and Stripes flying to the breeze in background, progressing in full stride toward the dawn of a new day, carrying branches of laurel and oak, symbolical of civil and military glory. The hand outstretched in bestowal of the spirit of liberty. An eagle perched high upon a mountain crag on the reverse, wings unfolded, fearless in spirit and conscious of his power and a sapling of mountain pine springing from a rift in the rock is, symbolical of land of America.
