<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 5951206, member: 24091&quot;]I&#039;m not a huge fan of eBay as a collector, but every once in a while there is a coin listed on eBay that is perhaps far better than the seller realizes, hence it is actually priced right and a pretty good deal.</p><p><br /></p><p>Case in point, the 1927 Austria 100 Schilling below.&nbsp; There are only two coins for the ENTIRE series that are attributed as DCAM.&nbsp; I now own half of them, and for a modest premium above melt!</p><p><br /></p><p>As cool in-hand as in the photographs.&nbsp; There is a die crack running parallel to the rim at 6 o&#039;clock on the reverse.&nbsp; It&#039;s very thin, but when viewed with a loupe it looks like tectonic plates that have heaved and separated, the area near the rim noticeably higher than the surrounding fields.&nbsp; There&#039;s little doubt the die shattered not long after this coin was struck.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1243788[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1243789[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
