Happy B-DAY!! It's all down hill from here.
Congrats on the Wheeties and the SLQ. If you can tell that Lady Liberty has a bare rt. breast, you will know that it's either the super rare 1916 or the 1917. I don't recommend using "acid date restorers" but if there is no chance at reading the date there may be little harm.
Fave Fun!

It's been so long ago, I don't even remember my 50th. (lol) BUT, I'm still metal detecting. (Prospecting) Unfortunately, the hills and gulches keep getting steeper as I go up them. Hmmm, must be the erosion.

I sincerely hope you have at least as many more birthdays as I have had.

Happy Birthday:occasion14: from down under - yep it's a weird feeling to be the first one to live to 50 in your family line, I am the first male to do so in mine. Hereditary cholesterol - diabetes - heart disease on both sides in my case - but my Ma is 82! I'm 57 now and still going ok, I do rattle a little from all the pills I have to take though!
Many more Nuggy
