I went to a show where a dealer brought me some printing plates from the 20s-40s. He bought them years ago and has them stored away. This was a sample of what he brought me today.
The printing plates!
This is a picture of the note plates mirrored and played with in photoshop.

It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

OK, you got me. I guess I need to figure out where this was published.

I'm expecting an answer soon! It was in the 30s or 40s I would guess...

Marty,
I picked up a bunch of Roosevelt Dimes, two Merury Dimes, and a Buffalo Nickel (All Unc).
A local dealer offered me a 1916-D AG-3 at a bargain price, so I asked him to put it aside for me, and I will pick it up next week. The dime just has wear. No bends, no scratches and no problems.
