AJ's BS or not list

Someone way back, not me, named those 2000 50's with the fat letters 'Candleabra', but no patent was taken out on the name. :winkextra:

AJ, this was one I sold back in Aug 2012 ..... $12.05

Not sure how they worked out that they are scarcer than an incused?
I might have to check the ground behind RG's bull ......

On the alignment front, I did have this earlier in the year. Cut bigger than normal and aligned a fair bit out of whack in comparison..... listed it for $60 ...... didn't sell ...... sob .....

Them's the breaks!

Its funny, yesterday it looked like that to me, and I just couldn't see it correctly. Today it looks normal. All a bit Escher-esque.

Optical illusion, happens to me all the time. :angel:

This might help AJ .... same coin (on left) with a normal for comparison ...

that is too groovy
I like it a lot

It certainly is unusual and not a feature which you would be normally looking for on one of these coins

What am I not seeing?

The fat lettering in the word Millennium.Especially the last half of the word

I can't for the life of me see that incused flag
BUT I CAN see the fat lettering that looks, well, maybe like candles
I must admit that the song - 'I like your big butt baby' came into my mind!! ha ha

DOH! I saw the doubling, but didn't attribute much significance to it. Now I'll have to find all mine and see if any have fat letters as well.

It's fairly common in my experience. :angel:
