Here's what I picked up this weekend; the local B&M is gonna start getting sick of me.

The 1960 small date looks like it might not be a small date, but something even better! From the pic it looks more like the small date over large date variety. Tough to find and even tougher to find in cameo. Check the date carefully, if it looks like a small 6 and small 0 is overlayed over a larger 6 and larger 0, you hit the jackpot.
Then again, it could be just a nice small date.

Also, I love that '58 Washington...great strike
You can see a little something going on with the inner tail of the 6 in these photos:
But it is always wise to check proofs for varieties - I've made many thousands of dollars cherrypicking them.
In any event, still some very nice pickups.

<< <i>Sorry to get you so excited. The latter pics show it is indeed a small date. >>
No more excited than any other time I buy a coin. I appreciate the tip...my Volume 1 of the CPG hasn't made it to me in the mail yet, so I appreciated the tip...mine should be showing up in the mail this week actually.
If this were the SD/LD or the LD/SD it would be rather obvious. They aren't hard to detect at all.
