This is not photoshopped ....

Lot #8246 in the upcoming StacksBowers auction. Very unfortunate ....

Spots always seem to show up in the worst possible places.

Ach du mein lieber!

Quite the conversation piece. I'll bet it does well, considering the "spot" appears to have knocked down the grade.

Wonder how bad that will affect the price?

Kitlers... aka cats that look like....

Oliver Hardy?

Stanley, here's another fine mess you've gotten me into...

Seriously- sorry about the spot

I always thought the 'H' in IHC meant 'head'? Guess I was wrong.

<< <i>Oliver Hardy?

>>

Oh yeah!

I just assumed everyone was referring to Charlie Chaplin.

Hitlers grandmother???

That always gets misquoted. It's another NICE mess.

kaz · January 22, 2012 3:45AM

Yeah, my first thought was Chaplin satirizing a fascist

coinkat · January 22, 2012 3:58AM

Another Fine Mess was the title of one of their classic short films

PerryHall · January 22, 2012 4:06AM

If it were cracked and resubmitted would it still get the RD designation? I'm guessing that spot wasn't there when it was slabbed.

<< <i>Another Fine Mess was the title of one of their classic short films >>

Yes it was, and is the main reason Hardy's line gets misquoted. It's unfortunate that Hal Roach decided to name the film that way. Hardy never actually said "fine mess" in any of their films. It was always "nice mess".

German Red.

EagleEye · January 22, 2012 6:08AM

I think it's ugly

<< <i>It is amazing what a small dark patch under the nose can do for just about anybody.... >>

Look what it did for Groucho!

DMWJR · January 22, 2012 6:33AM

Rick, could I get this listed as a Snow variety please? I would like the credit for it.

The only other coin on which I've seen a Hitler moustasche was a 1907 P Barber Half in a MS 65 holder.

AUandAG · January 22, 2012 6:43AM

Could have been ear wax....

Well, we could do a "Coins that look like Hitler" thread!

Don't laugh until after you look at the site below ... someone has done it for cats!
