    Neat find... I assume you use either a bright light or magnification. Cheers, RickO

    Chris-

    Nice 'pick!! Can't tell you too much about current rarity, etc, but I've seen them offered at pretty high prices.

    There's a very informative thread about this very variety over on the Registry Forum, this should give you the answers to your questions.

    Yeah, but rbintx always wants way too much for his coins imo. Probably worth $150 or so. Nice Find!
