Hi Folks,
Been having a pretty good night searching tonight. I found a very elusive 1943 extreme class 6 obverse cent. We don't have it on the site yet as we haven't been able to get ahold of one before. Too bad this thing is so corroded. It would be a $250.00 coin in MS65.
The second pic shows what I have named the "Flying D". It's a 1952D RPM (#3 I believe), with a rather intriguing die break next to the mintmark. This is as close to a real wing looking thingy I have ever seen. ENJOY!

There it is .... give me back my FLYING D .... wahooooooooo bugger.

Nice pictures, since you brought it up ... I'll add that to my list and send a 1943 (1-O-VI) FS-018.97 to the one/s I'm sending into Chuck.

Nice pictures.

Just noticed the 1943S (1-O-III) formally listed as (1-O-IV) FS-019.5 isn't there either, adding to list. (I think it's a IV+III) I'll leave that to Chuck on what to list it as.

I know what I'm gonna do ... two packages ... one that need/s and the other that has been ... I know talking, talking, talking, shut up and send em in ... will do.
