I just placed a subscription order for the 2 coin set dropping in Fall. Hopefully that is the right item. I really like the look of the diamond field

Could be a 1941 or a 1942 … or a future coin from 19412.

Thanks @JQC! There is supposed to be more doubling in the letters.

Thanks @REB!

Thanks @Craig. ! was eyeing a PCGS VF35 at a coin show for $560 which was a good bargain, but it got sold. This one was $860 (slightly more than my b/o 26BM1 due in Sept). I don’t know what the total# is. Cherrypicker’s guide has then at about 2,000, but between PCGS and NGC there are about 6,000 graded. I’m thinking 30,000-40,000

Thanks for relaying your Dad’s service to our country JQ! Gave me fond memories of our Bicentennial and the show Block Sheep Squadron as well as M.A.S.H. rerun episodes, where they were trying to procure the “Goods” from other units or bases! Congrats on finding that good looking Bicentennial quarter you shared here the other day as well!

John Q, just 2 more nickels and not only will you be talking about old Merc’s with Tone Loc’s “funky cold Medina”, you’ll also be able to boast about a link to Queens very own “50 Cent”! LOL

God Bless your Dad. I cannot image the pain he held in his chest as he delivered servicemen to the battle field knowing that many would not return ….
