    Walt Knoch It sure is

    Found this...... first let me say I currently do not have overall coin photo capability right now. OK...... 2005 New Hampshire State Quarter. Old Man In The Mountain script. Look at the cut in the letters. The M, H, and T in particular. This is a no-hit coin. Doesn't appear to be a worn die with a obscure field. All the other surrounding letters are fine. So how could this happen?

    It's not identical, but I will post this for those with zero imagination or humor to compare.

    @Walt Knoch
    By the way.. I work next to the Radio Wave building in NYC. Just took this picture..
    Home of Tesla and his original experiments!

    Very nice Paddyman. Never knew the bulk of his work was in NYC. Always kinda thought it was with Edison in New Jersey. Learn something everyday. Thanks.

    You are welcome ..
    I once read a story that he created some kind of earthquake generating device. People around here complained that everything shook and they were scared!

    Never heard that but I do live in Dearborn Mi where the Henry Ford Museum is. In the surrounding area is something called Greenfield Village. A collection of buildings of historic value. I can't remember if Edisons building is the original or a replica, but to go through and be inches from all the bottles, tables, chairs and items of the day is incredible. The Wright Bros. Cycle shop is there also, and to see the tools they used to carve a 91% efficiency rated prop BY HAND verses the best they achieve today is somewhere around 93% with computers is truly mindboggling. ( sorry to veer off topic folks)

    Tesla's oscillator

    Given all Tesla accomplished, it's easy to imagine that he couldn't exaggerate -- but in this case, I'm pretty sure he did. Yeah, resonance is a thing, but when big buildings resonate, they accumulate and dissipate energy, they don't amplify it. Phenomena like the Tacoma Narrows Bridge disaster happen because there's a lot of energy continuing to be pumped into the system as the resonance builds.

    Although Tesla worked for Edison at first they had a falling out and did not get along.

    I do believe it is the original building and laboratory.
