Great job Jason ! You did tell John that keeping the coin was part of the deal,right?:crossedlips:
An amazing find for sure. Hope this makes it to one of the numismatic publications. Its certainly worthy of mention in coin world, IMO.

Wonderful to see these photos. Jason, having seen this one in hand, what would you say is the best pick-up point?
Whenever I look at a 1990 cent, I scan "LIB." I believe that is the strongest PUP, with the bowtie being a close second. On the only mint state example, and until now the ONLY other example, the separation between the primary and secondary "I" in Liberty really pops.

Nice pictures Jason. Way to go John. I can see the difference now. Wasn't for sure before. My eye and I think everybody else will be hinting this one down. I know it's on top of my list.

Thanks. I've always looked at LIBERTY too. For me, it seems like the IBE stands out the most.

I can see if I can get it in the Coneca Errorscope. The deadline in in two days...

The wear on LIBERTY makes that a difficult pickup point, whereas the separation on the vest and tie really stands out. On a BU coin, I would agree that LIBE of LIBERTY would probably be the key area.

Thanks John. Glad to have had the opportunity to see it and document. Wiles wants to see it for the CONECA files so I will forward to him soon.
