I was wondering if someone could confirm the difference between the small font and large font on the Flamingo 50th Anniversary 1996 strikes. When going through a group of strikes that I thought were duplicates I noticed that style on the number 9 and 6 were different than on my other 50th Anniversary 1996 strikes (no dot and dot). The 9's on the strike in question do not curve at the bottom, (a slight angle from top to bottom but very straight), and the year may be a little smaller. Art Becker's book says the year takes up "half" as much space. The year on this strike is not the same as the other two. This would complete my 50th Anniversary set if I am correct? Thanks for any help in clearing this up!!
