[QUOTE="GeorgeM, post: 25804470, member: 28550"]I recently picked up something that's been on my wishlist for a while. I may have done better than I expected to find for the price. What do you make of this PanPac commemorative half? I bought it at an EF-Details price, but am hopeful that it might get a straight AU grade (or better). I'll be sending it into ANACS shortly and will update to see how it comes back. The surfaces are a bit grainy, and there's a ring effect I've seen even on MS65 examples of this coin. If it wasn't attested to being from the dies on many other coins, I would assume it was damage from a coin counting wheel. Does anyone know what caused this on the Panama Pacific commemoratives? Also, I know there's an S/S RPM variety, but can't find any photos showing the telltales to check. Is this an S/S? I think I see a second upper curve of the S above the mintmark. If that isn't it, how does one determine the S/S variety?
