JohnWayne007 Pillar of the Community Canada 1186 Posts	Posted 02/08/2020 4:16 pm I was holding onto this one for a while and planned to look more into it but didn't get around to doing it until recently, I was just curious to know everyones opinion on this one, as you can see the bottom of the 8 looks like possible damage but it actually doesn't have the "damaged" look if that makes sense at all... its very well rounded and smooth, also the 5 looks thicker at the top and side and on the bottom left there is a split notch, most likely nothing but I am not confident enough to discard it without asking first. thanks in advance.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/09/2020 12:08 am I agree. It looks like a contact mark on both digit. The normal cent doesn't have a notch there that year: Edited by coop 02/09/2020 12:08 am Report this Post to the Staff
