Gee, that poor sheriff must look like a colander now. Several people have shot him, including Bob Marley, Ziggie marley, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Stevie Wonder and plenty of others. (I don't think Stevie Wonder would have actually pinged him, unless it was at point blank range.)

Hey Robster, any chance of a close up of the Die crack through F.D. IND.

It looks very much (to me) like it's a lam. :angel:

Quote from: 'ausjack' pid='106151' dateline='1488509105':scratch_one-s_head: so what one is the better one to have, serif or non serif.

Renniks varieties has the no serif listed (as common), which makes sense as the 1925 / 1927's etc have the serif, so the non is the variety.

My numbers for 1926 are Non-Serif=18 and Serif=5 so to me the serif is less common. (Not a big sample size though).

I think your wrong Jeff and Stevie wouldn't have had a problem because the sheriff would have had spurs on so he would have made a noise, something like the cat in this skit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJnKDFt7vT8 :shock: :mocking:

Thanks Uni, I only have one and it doesn't have the serif

Nancy, you are correct I believe - Robby rushing as usual:dodgy:

'Spur on Emu's Leg'.

'Blob' adjacent numeral 2.

Die crack 'E' to truncation.

Lumps lower left of shield.

Die crack r.h.s.
