    2.5 legger?

    Yeah might be a 2.5 legger in there.. sort of bottom right coin.
    You have more patience than I do to wade through these types of listings. Let us know how it turns out.

    I recently purchased this small grouping for $6.55 ($2.50 shipping):


    Two of them had the "S" mintmark. Not a big hit, of course- but kind of cool.

    @BUFFNIXX I think you’ve cornered the market on this variety. Well done.

    It took almost three weeks for this to come to me from Georgia and it did turn out to be a 3 & 1/2 legger
    I will post pics of it soon
