I&#039;ve been on the hunt for a problem free example for some time and there wasn&#039;t one in the entire room at Baltimore and I believe there are only 35/10 in 64 at both services with 5&#039;s being double the money. I don&#039;t have many proof coins and this is my first US Pattern and at its price, this will probably represent my entire Large Cent collection! There is a bit of toning that I wasn&#039;t able to capture with a few quick shots. I must say my imagination flows just thinking about the possibility of these being chosen for everyday use instead of the Liberty Heads that were used. I imagine they were tabled due to striking issues and these were probably made in the medal presses at the time, or it was just on the eve of the small cents usage and dropped for that reason, maybe both reasons......I&#039;m not sure but I&#039;ll have fun finding all that out. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks, Matt[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
