First post...I recently came across an old container of coins that once belonged to my grandfather...While looking at some of them, I noticed this 1919 penny with part of the N missing. The other 1919 pennies don't look like this. Is this significant or just damage?
Initially I thought a plugged die, but it looks likepart of an abrasion or metallic line just to the left of the top. It looks like something may have removed/sliced part of it. The thumbnail photo of the N isn't clear enough to delineate what happened, but, if there is a mark there, then it's PMD .. post mint damage. It looks like whatever cut into the N got some of the "O" as well.
Thanks... I wish there were some gems in this old container. It doesn't appear that he saved all these for any particular reason... Most of them were WWII era normal coins.
There are also a lot of old notes...many of them in fantastic condition. I'll have to take some pictures when I can get them again. Maybe there's some value in those?
I managed to get my brother to take a picture of this set of 5 $20 notes that have consecutive serial numbers. Not sure how much of a difference that makes?
