Please help. I just found this roll hunting. I am 95% sure it is a 1913d type 2. I tried to take pictures the best I could of what is left of the date, but they are no where near as good as in hand. The way the top of what I think is the 3 angles down so quickly makes me think it is a 3 and not a 7. Either way I am positive on the d and a 1913d type 2 or a 1917d is an amazing roll fine.

Thanks for the help. I know the reverse picture is really out of focus, but I am not really looking for grade thoughts. I think it is G4. No horn, but maybe since it is a early date it might be a bit better. I just really want feedback on if you think it is a 1913 or 1917. Thanks again for the help and looking.

Hard to tell from the quality of the pics. The forth digit sorta looks like a "3" but might be a "7". Comparing it to other coins with stronger dates should help solve the mystery. Really, there are only about 4 or 5 "D" mint dates it could possibly be.

I think it's 1917. Look how it go's down.

Since the date is weak, the value is like only 15%.

Based upon handling several buhzillion part dates of each, my money's on 17. I know that your second photo shows what might be construed as the oval on the bottom of a 3, but it's too low and doesn't protrude far enough to the right so, whatever that is, I don't think it's part of a 3.

I can say with little doubt that the coin is a 1917-D. LIBERTY would never be that strong on a 1913-D at that level of wear. The mintmark is also typical of 1917-D. Besides, I'm pretty sure I can read a '7'.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess I was hoping to much. Still a cool roll find.

Tuff call. I'm not sure but looks like a 18 to me. Regardless, not a 13 for sure.
