    No spaghetti hair because it's a really nice brockage! I bought this for my prime number set, since I felt the set needed a state quarter from the first year of the program. I hate the Spaghetti Hair obverse, though, so when I spotted this exceedingly cool specimen, I decided it belonged in my set. As a bonus, 1787 is also a prime number, making this the only coin in my set with two different prime dates on it. A Fugio already sits in the 1787 slot. As a double bonus, the reverse detail is absolutely hammered, as tends to be the case with errors like this.

    Together with the 1997 MS 1/2 oz. Platinum Eagle I added a week ago, the 20th century is now finished. I'd post that here, too, but I don't want to distract from this bad boy.

    I much prefer ziti or rigatoni myself.

    Cool double prime error!

    Great looking coin and I can see why you had to have it. My favorite is elbow macaroni.
