Love that 19-107a!!
That's one I'm still on the hunt for for my short set..
Let me throw you a curve ball by posing a, gasp, Seated Liberty half.

I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

Not the best photos but I finally had the chance to snap a couple today.
Todd wanted to see these cracks and clashes.

Would a planchet flaw count?
