Re: Introducing myself

Welcome stargazer...and I second liking the trout!

Welcome Ronnie also :)
BTW Ronnie, Its best to start your own introduction thread though so more people will see it. When you post under someone else's thread it will never get as many eyes looking at it :)

Re: 1960-D One Cent

Hey R, I don't see anything, but it might be the photo. However since you have the coin in hand, go here https://doubleddie.com/311222.html and compare what you see in their hi def photos, to what you have. Then you have the bragging rights to finding it "all by your ownself" 😁

For now I'm just cherry picking with small US coins. I don't want to get in over my head! I enjoy the art of co...
