This is the best picture I could get of what I was talking about in the previous thread. Thanks to hamiltonjh for getting the picture to a size I could post. Much appreciated!!

First of all

I checked all my sources and can't find anything with die cracks, if they are minor there is probably no vam for them. Most of the vams from 98 have doubling on the date, check there. The ring is probably post mint damage , but I don't know for sure, need a closer pic.

Sometimes you need a really closeup look at a coin to see the vam like this



Try a straight on pic and get yourself a free hosting site, then you can post pics that are higher quality. There's a pretty big learning curve bet keep going and happy hunting!!

WOW!! Thanks for the great info. I am trying to find out if there is anyone in the CIncinnati area that I could take it too and have them check it out. THANKS!!!
