<p>[QUOTE="Fugio1, post: 4192014, member: 89970"][USER=74282]@red_spork[/USER], This is a very special coin with an amazing acquisition story. This die variation with the Q device on the shield (or any ornamentation on the shield) is truly unique. It should also be noted that both of the examples in the VHoard are in pretty dreadful condition. One is struck from very mushy dies, and the other is significantly off center. Of the three known examples, yours is the best representative of the variety.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your diligence and observation skills have netted you some fabulous coins within the sea of otherwise uninteresting stuff on Ebay. I'm not knocking ebay, it's a great resource for collectors, but I had pretty much given up on it until you started showing me some of the amazing finds you have netted by careful observation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
