Dearborn Moderator United States 97511 Posts	Posted 11/20/2023 8:03 pm The MM looks fine, but you are missing the end of the date due to a Grease Filled Die. Collecting since 1972.

Also looks like a large date to me but I'm not that great picking out the difference for this year coin. Cool find! Report this Post to the Staff
