@pocketpiececommems... Wow... Now that's a REALLY bad one.... I have nothing to compare.... But thanks for showing us what is now the standard to beat. Cheers, RickO
@Zoins I could never figure out how or why coins in that condition that aren't valuable end up getting certified. Somebody posted a very bad condition 1979 quarter once that was slabbed. ?????
