I'm gonna say its a 31. Looking at the third digit it reminds me of an 8.

1921, the spacing from the 1 to the rim matches a 1921 while a 1931 has a larger space. The coin is quite worn but it was also struck with dies that were way beyond their optimal lifespan. I have never seen a 1931 that poorly struck but early 1920s dates are frequently found in a VLDS.

I'll go against the popular vote and say 1951.

This coin can't grade AG.
One of the markers for an AG
"Date will be legible."

FR02
One of the markers for Fair
"Date will be unreadable."

That being the case, this coin has to grade Fair as there's so many different opinions on what the date is. My personal opinion is that it's a 31 but I can understand the 21 replies, the 51 reply, and.... the 81.
Rest in Peace

I'd say 31, fair condition. Just an exercise in grading, since a VF of either date can be had for a couple bucks.

If we quit posting every time we were idiots, this forum would be mighty lonely.
