Ilikeabecoins Valued Member United States 262 Posts	Posted 03/08/2018 07:39 am Good morning from the east coast of the USA. I was messing around with the lighting yesterday when I saw an odd area on this coin. I think it is a large date (I didn't look at the answer. Did I get it right?) with a strike through something to the south of LIBERTY in the field. I had to angle the coin some to get a good pic. I hope you can see it. It also has some peeling and a rim crack. Thank you for looking. Edited by Ilikeabecoins 03/08/2018 07:41 am Report this Post to the Staff

BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 03/08/2018 07:58 am Sorry, not seeing an error. Just wear and dirt. BTW, while technically your are correct that it is a large date, the small/large date is inky a "thing" for the 1970 S not D. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/08/2018 12:07 pm Looks like a clash that was attempted to be polished out. I found a 1972 cent with the same issue years ago where it was fresh. The clash was just on one side of the design on the obverse (left side of the coin) and it shows on the reverse where the letters from 'TY' on LIBERTY shown through on the bays: That will give you see what you had on your coin at one time.
