<p>[QUOTE="a_squuared, post: 3024768, member: 91956"]Don't let them get you down. I have found 1 of these varieties in circulation! Very difficult to identify because the main marks that differentiate the the rare version vs. the regular version (the detailed tail feathers of course) are the first markings on the entire reverse to fade away since they are one of the highest devices on the reverse, and aren't too deeply struck to begin with. You then need to identify it by other die markings, primarily on the obverse of the coin under the "P" mintmark..........Some of the detailed tail feathers are still visible on the one I found.....but they are faint and only visible through 10x magnification at this point. I haven't sent it out to be graded yet, but I'm 100% sure it is the Cherrios reverse of 1999 rare version....I'm thinking it will grade anywhere betweeen AU58-MS61.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Keep looking!</p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
