allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 05/30/2022 6:23 pm Hello all. this 1974 S is showing a bottom collapse on the Die Mark. Not much else going on this coin, but if it is an RPM I couldn't identify it. The first pic of the mint mark has no overhead light but the second has the overhead lights on. Let me know your thoughts and Regards. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 108556 Posts	Posted 05/30/2022 6:34 pm The bottom of the 'S' looks flat and possibly scraped - I think it took a hit. Possible bag mark as Frog states.
