    I was up in the air with this one. What pushed me over the edge is the O mm on the Barber Half. It would be my first O mm.

    Deja vu all over again. Thanks for your generosity Rob.

    Coin D as I have no flying eagles at all.

    Just found this among my world coins.
    It is much worse for wear, but still readable.

    Coin C

    I used to pick low end 1/2R -2R out of junk boxes in the 80s and always liked them. Finding a 2R in a 50 cent box was a big deal
