Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 10/12/2019 4:56 pm It looks like the date and mint mark took a big hit and circulation has smoothed out damaged area. I'm thinking it's just PSD. Edit: Added a little more. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/12/2019 5:40 pm Well first of all the 1946 year was known for the weaker '46' on pretty much all the coins. As the dies wore down, the 46 became a lot weaker like you coin shows. I've seen some with a strong mintmark and 19, but the 46 was weak. Note the 3 close ups of the date: there is a trench where something had damaged the mintmark and the 4 on the date on your coin. So it looks like a bit of damage on that area of the coin.
