Thanks for this video! It was very informative.
Excellent presentation. Very interesting.
You by far have the best video out here with clearing this up! I would like to send you pics. I truly believe after watching this video I have the 1975 dime no s proof. I have been researching & comparing non stop. & with you owning the proof that is “less shinier” than the proof… almost confirms. I have alot of comparison pictures I would like to send for your opinion!
Thank you, I appreciate it. In the about section, you'll find my email. ;-)
