You were coin roll hunting a box of pennies and come across one that you are not totally sure of. While you are looking at this coin, something just doesn’t look right. So, you take some photos of it and zoom in, crop it and some thing still dosn't just feel right about the area you are looking at. You decide to put it in a flip and look at it again in a few days. After some where around one or two month of doing this, you continue to think you are seeing it. Now comes the dilemma. Is it really there, or have you totally convinced yourself it is when in fact it isn’t? You have put the coin aside still in a flip, and basically forget about it. Then one day you decide you need to straighten up all clutter around your computer, you find this 1996 cent in a flip, and wonder why as you have no documentation of what it may be. You take it out to look at it, and bang, there it is, the coin that haunted you for over three months is back, and you see exactly what you thought you saw in the beginning. Now do you post it or just let it go? After all this time you decide to post it so it stops haunting you after all this time. Yes, I do have such a coin, and still waiting to see if I still do after some more time.
As always to those who make this site what is Thank You

Re: dilemmas of coin roll searching
You're welcome and thanks for being a part of it. My take is no coin is going to worry me like that. Before that would happen I would pay a fee to send it to Paul or someone at CONECA.

Think you missed your calling. You should be an author. I was spell bound. Very, very good. You held my attention till the end of you post. God gave each of us a gift. Just need to find it.
