<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PersianGuy, post: 717632, member: 17820&quot;]I don&#039;t think your very helpful insight into this coin (and it&#039;s seller) is mean at all! I appreciate your experience and thank you for all for your comments.</p><p><br /></p><p>This guy had a slew of early halves up, all containing a similar mark on the obverse, a couple of them are just beautiful apart from the purposefully inflicted flaw.&nbsp; Maybe it was a hasty buy, when I have it in hand I will take better photos and repost here. That corrosion bothers me more than the mark, because if the story is true it does give a little character to the coin. I still have to try and authenticate the story, but of course even if it is true, who knows for sure that this coin came from the hoard in question.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jloring that is the paragraph listed in the auction, I am going now to check out his sources and see what I can find. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks everyone, you guys gave me even more than I asked for!</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
