masterofsecrets Valued Member Canada 158 Posts	Posted 01/16/2013 6:43 pm Hi everyone! I have just found a 1974 "missing S" 50 cent peice that I'm curious about. I know it's hard to grade pictures, and I'm still learning how to take them, but please have a look and let me know what you think. Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

dialog_gvf Pillar of the Community Canada 1581 Posts	Posted 01/19/2013 9:02 pm Neat. I didn't know about this variety before. I guess this would be a Grease Fill in the die. Can you see any indication of the missing S? Apparently there are also missing A and missing A+RE of AD MARE varieties. Report this Post to the Staff

masterofsecrets Valued Member Canada 158 Posts	Posted 01/31/2013 4:26 pm hmmm, a seller on the bay just sold a couple graded at AU-50 for $25ea. Might be neat to have it professionally graded, of course I might just like the cash from it to put into something else... thanks everyone! Report this Post to the Staff
