We got three new Raw mattes listed and I while I think one is legit, I am pretty sure two are not. Anyway, I could use your scrutiny before I list them in the weekly list.

Thanks

Text1912 that is probably not a MATTE

TextThis guy is always questionable and so is this 1914 proof

Text Looks like a 1914 Matte

I noticed on the site of the 1912, that he also has a red unc 1922 no D. Doesn't the area around 5 o'clock on the obverse look a little suspicious as well? I think someone will be quite disappointed with either one.

Neither of those 14's shows the little die chip up from the first 1 in the date.

the 12's rims look round to me.

Ugh...

Why don't they have the ballz to start off with a bid of 2000$ ?, if they are so all fired up sure its a mattie?

The only one that has any possibility is #3 IMO.

The # 3 1914 OBV looks OK but its the REV I question. I ran the pic through photoshop and this is what I come up with.

The rims have the look of a possible matte. Aside from that it's pretty tough to see any other positive signs that it is. Any gamblers?

WaterSport

I have photoshopped the heck out of this one..but no rev die chip.

Regardless of if that middle 14 was a matte or not....someone got a hell of deal at 41$.
