Even though it's a semi-key...with the scratch on the obverse and the rim damage on the reverse...I don't think in the F-15 - VF-20 range the $95 is worth it...jmho smat Report this Post to the Staff

thecoinguy1964 Pillar of the Community United States 1300 Posts	Posted 04/10/2026 09:15 am This is my dad's favorite coin & date. We bought a large group of 38-D's many years ago, I don't know how many, but it's quite a few. They've been locked away in his safe ever since. I will try going through my ledger, to find the exact number in the lot. Thanks for sharing. Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3619 Posts	Posted 04/10/2026 5:09 pm I agree with @smat45, this could be a very slightly rotated die clash with the seventh sunray (closest to the gown) or a gouge from die polishing of that clash. The graffiti above IN GOD likely would detail this coin. There are better examples out there for the price. Report this Post to the Staff
