Aloha Patsy!

I’m a rookie, no doubt. But a quick & enthusiastic learner! I’ve been collect’ing’ for several years. But a collec’tor’ for only a couple of years-if that makes sense?

Back to the Libertads, beautiful coins. I have 10 MS coins, similar to your graded beauty. However mine were bullion bargains from a dealer like APMEX years ago, still great coins…

That really nice PCGS Reverse Proof Libertad is not mine, but I wish it were!
I was looking for something for Antonio to ‘see’ what you were trying to ‘point’ out lol’..

By the way? You may be on to something there. It may get some pushback later, if indeed it was Minted with the same ‘nippy’ feature as the rendering..There very well could be a type two strike down the pike.. Or even some that have Die deterioration/polishing–paving the way to something similar to a ‘Three Legged Buffalo’ or a ‘No FG’ Mink Quarter! Am I over exaggerating?-probably. But this is something to watch–See what plays out–Nice catch!

Nice Score Rick!

Cheers

Cali,
Interestingly enough, as you may have noticed, my post on this article suddenly showed up today as the first one up top..How so? After several posts showed up before mine did today?
Well I posted first indeed yesterday midday, but my attachments for E1 held things up in the “wait for approval dept.” IMO.. It took a whole day to approve my post with links?..But on other articles(even this one) my link went right through(example PCGS Libertad)..So my guess is that it’s hit or miss with a post that includes a link…
I would expect to see your post tomorrow, and you’ll get the email of approval as well..Still a learning curve here(for me anyway)..

PS: Thanks for all of your investigative reporting on the Liberty, etc. Programs(well, everything), much appreciated!

The greatest gift to receive in life is beauty. Only those who have taste can receive it.

Good minds think alike.

Oooh, 70. That’s a toughie. Are you sure you are a rookie?

Rick,

It is. It is amazing. With all of the nation’s previous coat of arms on the reverse. The Uno Onza Proof Libertad is one of my favorites too. Artistic Realism.

Cheers

MD,

Foreign Object Debris (FOD)? Burrs? Embedded Metal? Contamination? Dirty process? Interesting. Wait and see if anyone else reports the same thing. Thanks for the picture.

It looks like a shaving/thread, seen it here & there on Proofs…
My SSB coin seen(I hope you can see/zoom)below, I have it circled–No it’s no fuzz or hair, it’s a ‘metal hair’ stuck there. Yours wont blow off, but it may if you try?.
My $.02 contribution…
