This coin has three things going for it. 1) A real neat RPM 2) Beautiful toning and 3) It's a 67+! Thanks for looking.

    Yes, a RPM is when a MM is punched over a MM on the Die before it is used for striking coins.

    Jon... that mm also looks inverted....Maybe I just do not know that the thick part is supposed to be on top..... Cheers, RickO

    Rick - That was my thought also. But that is how it is listed on the CONECA site. I might ask Dr. Wiles about that.

    Hey now! That a superb piece my man. It has crazyhounddog's birth year too. Now I know for sure I'm old as dirt.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
