    Is it? Dang, every time I think I've checked my coins for varieties, Paddy finds one I've missed!

    The "small stars" variety is scarcer than the large stars. I did not really care any further than that.

    I think this may be a strike through but I am not sure what it is, whether some sort of debris, grease or wood. It doesn't seem to be, from what I can see, an embedded bit of wood, but I could be wrong. I am trying to figure out if it could be debris (like in a dropped letter) where part of the devices was clogged and it fell out or whether it is something more foreign to the coin. The 'coloring' is light and consistent across where it is located, and part of that is areas that have ridges and valleys of a sort (i.e., it is not completely flat there, and it follows the contours). I think I might have to wait to get a very nice pic of it. I sure don't want to break it out to see the coin in hand for photoing.

    Nice pick, but how in the heck is that AU? Is the variety usually weakly struck?

    I have not posted in here for a while. My coin purchases have dropped off sharply over the last few months. I've been busy and just bought a new to me 2014 Ford Flex, which I have absolutely fallen in love with!! Plus the whole Christmas thing. LOL

    Anyway's I found my self with some extra pocket money today and stopped by my favorite bullion/coin shop and picked up some real beauties.

    Up first is a 1921 Morgan that I just could not say no to. First it's a really nice in hand '21, plus it has die cracks galore!! I'm a certifiable crack head, so if it has die cracks I want it. LOL I've done a Guess the VAM on it in another thread.

    I paid $25.00 for this beauty.

    And then I picked up this gorgeous coin. I think it's one of the most beautiful bullion coins I have ever owned. It has a very unique luster to it, I've never seen anything quite like it. It's a 1993 Mexican Silver Onza. I brought her home for $19.80.
