That's incredible! Working retail in the coin world I see my fair share of "error" coins, but rarely anything worth mentioning. That's truly incredible that they actually had a 69S DDO. In all your years of doing this, have you come across any other similar discoveries?
It would have been courteous to alert the reader that your bumping an old thread.
New here, not entirely sure what that means. Commented on what came up.
By looking at the date of the thread before posting, you can see that this is 8 years old. No problem with posting and this was a fun thread to read BUT it is courteous, if bringing up a long dormant thread, to notate it with
OLD THREAD ALERT or something of the like.
Thanks, I guess I could have located the date lol. Do you mean just in the title of the comment I should say OLD THREAD ALERT?
Yes, though you need not use bold face. Just begin your comment with that line and then drop down and make your comment.
