I'm prepared to take a second mortgage on my house to win this mule. So, hands off, you error guys... this one's mine.

    That's funny!

    On a related note, I have noticed so many factual errors in Scotsman cataloging that I don't even look anymore, much less bid. I've tried to reach out to let them know and crickets.

    I had some guy at the gas station tell me he had an original 1886 D as in Denver Indian head cent.
    Wished the person well, paid and left.

    (His sister works at the library got the person a used red book) 😘

    Tell him to post it here. We would love to congratulate him on that rare find. :D

    I emailed them on March 16 with this information and... you guessed it... crickets. So I don't feel too guilty poking fun at them here. Although I will point out, I just "shamed." You actually "named." :-)

    I'd pass on it, Sean, too big a difference in wear between the obverse and reverse. 🙃

    It delights me to share this photograph of their printed catalog, page 166.

    In print is even more embarrassing.
