I thought it could be a adjustment strike, but there's hardly anyway to really tell without coin in hand.

IMO this forum is one of the best with many knowledgeable contributors, since OP didn't provide the edge picture as requested, it helps in determining other than a damaged coin.

I'm usually a lurker here. I read a lot and have learned a tremendous amount from so many members. I thank you all.
With that said, too many have suggested it's "a throw back" "a spender" with so many coins. I'm no expert and keep my views to myself. With this coin I was wrong. With the poor pics I thought it was a struck through capped die.
OP was asked twice for an edge shot and once for the weight. He was also asked if the coin was thinner than normal. All questions to help determine what was going on with this coin.
There's blame all around here. I've seen so many threads that the "experts" tell the OP to spend a coin and I cringe. Last week was a mule die clash. Another (year's ago) was I believe a 77 silver Kennedy and most of the suggestions would have certainly greatly diminished the value of that coin.
Please in the future, lurk, unless you really know what's going on with the coin. If your opinion is speculation and not a fact let it be known. Don't be so quick to tell someone to pitch it.
Thank you all again for your knowledge and willingness to share it.

Haven't posted in a while, but do visit almost daily. While most question Dandaman99's motivation, etc., the way this conversation played out is rather interesting--with perhaps, a useful takeaway or two as we all move forward.

This message is for Dandaman99 if you happen to be still around.
I have posted "test questions" before but I make it known from the start. The questions were intend to help new comers. I would never have thought to come into a forum and try to "trick" long standing members.
I hope you were one of the people bobby131313 mentioned when he said.

Yes, we start by getting rid of people that have 2 active accounts so they can just deliberately screw with people with obscure coins.

You failed to post an edge picture when asked twice


....and yet a determination about the coin was made. My point stands.

If submissions contain insubstantial or improper information, determinations should be made with caution.
