Re: "22 P, is she worthy?

Dr. Close, Thanks for your pursuit in behalf of this VAM discovery. Now wearing a smile like a wave across a milk pail. Should this specimen be shipped to you?

Die file lines, anyone?

Cherrypickin' Saturday morning at the local B&M with Christian: Curious die file lines on this Peace 1923 P. Paid too much for the enjoyable experience, the lesson and this specimen. But enjoyable!

Re: "22 P, is she worthy?

David Close says, "I don't see any displacement across the die cracks. The file lines might justify the coin being listed, especially as it has a B1 reverse.

Re: "22 P, is she worthy?

Perhaps this is a rusty obverse at IGWT. Believe that is another crack 90-degress off the long one through "N" in IN. Here's closeup of "B" in LIBERTY. And that's the best photo of the rim "crud."
