Try explaining what device used to pix, and steps you're doing it. Someone should see what you need to change.

Took this picture off Craiglist. Looks like the possibility of a grease filled or flattened "D" MM Can't think of any other explanation. If there was a MM missing on the striking die, there would be thousands of them out there.  EDit- Correct typo Edited by JimmyD

Ol' George is a Greaser. The surfaces lend weight to that conclusion. A nice find "in the wild" and a good conversation starter, but you're not going to retire off it, or even buy lunch.

Just out of curiosity and lack of better things to do, I thought I would follow up on the craiglist listing the OP had up. Apparently even though he was advised that the coin was Struck Through Grease, he is still trying to sell it as an error. Don't think he has much chance with a opening bid of $100,000 for a uncertified "error" coin that he is handling with his fingers. Good luck to him if he does though, it would just prove that some people are dummer than I thought. https://providence.craigslist.org/c...9801576.html |

Sorry but I have to LOL at asking 100k+ for a raw coin like this. Even with the .001% chance it is legit and not a Greaser, why wouldn't you have it certified? If someone even offers you $100 you would be extremely lucky. |

Speaks a lot to the character of the seller.

Do what the "pros" do. Get it in a TPG holder as a grease filled mint-mark, then put it on ebay for 6 figures and say that in your opinion it is a mintmark error and unique. If coin dealers who claim to be members of several 3 letter affiliations can do it, anyone can. |

If it's wasn't a Greaser, there would be many, many, more of them. |
