[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1312410, member: 29239"]Hi there LostDutchman I just received this awesome coin today and have not tried to get any images of it yet. It will be hard to get good photos thru the slab. This coin really was a surprise for me. I would have bet my life on it that it was a man made hammer job while it was on Ebay. like I told you folks earlier I do know it is totally impossible for it to be a clashed die coin. after studying the coin for a few minutes this evening I am almost totally sure it is a struck thru filling from a coin die . there is evidence that the filling was dropped out of the die in one piece. what makes these so rare is the fact that somewhere around 99% of the time this junk debree breaks apart when it comes loose and falls out of the die. when I bid for this coin I was about totally sure that it was man made but I also knew what it mat be so I took a gamble and looks like Christmas has come early thanks to ICG. I will be asking ICG if they want to reslab this coin with the correct label. please don't close this thread because what folks say don't bother me.It's good to see you on this thread . We can all learn from this forum as we go along and I will help folks learn when I can.[/QUOTE]
