    1956 10c Rosy with a Halloween twist!

    Revisited a group I had put up and came across this. Check out the Halloween Horror script at IN GOD WE TRUST towards the rim.
    Spooky!!!!

    Wow, that is spookier than the spooks that have been knocking on my door the past couple of hours! That is cool looking Cliff, what causes that? I'm guessing die wear...

    That's what I'm thinking Viv. Extreme die deterioration and polishing at the mint? It is really excessive the closer it comes to the rim.
    Maybe we will call this one "Halloween Trails".

    It's melting like wax or a witch that got splashed with water Cool looking... Some pretty good die wear... They do get worse... I guess the mint was stretched for cash at times and used the dies until they exploded

    Neat die wear.

    Some class 6 doubled dies and trails look pretty spooky too.
