Bad Hair Day:



Bad Hair Day, exploding "Cents" and right hand vertical lines barely visible:

Rust on the plate. Or possibly something corrosive spilled on the plate and pitted it.

Quite a difference in the hair between that general series of 5 and those that follow like 210 and up. Odd that I never noticed this but that's what I get for not paying closer attention!

I know if you allow one "political anything" in the forums - you are forever making judgment calls on whether to allow or not to allow - this or that - going forward. I completely understand the decision - I just wish people got to see the joke there... it was pretty darn hilarious and meant no offense.

I'll stick to stamps.
