kevupnorth New Member United Kingdom 3 Posts	Posted 10/27/2021 06:58 am I have a half dollar Denver mint which does not have a date, but signs of wear where the date should be, has someone just ground it off or is it a known mint error. If it has just been removed ....why Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Second, to help determine whether your coin is damaged or has an error such as being Struck Through Grease, we are going to need a couple pictures of your coin. Here is a link to the tutorial: https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...g-images.asp I look forward to seeing what you have there.

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15596 Posts	Posted 10/27/2021 10:15 am to the CCF I agree that the date has been removed and the coin is hardly cleaned. All mistreatment that occurred post mint. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/27/2021 11:15 am With the coin altered, it is just a silver melt coin now. My guess? Possible 1960-63 (but leaning towards 1960 with what is still legible) But a cash in coin for melt if you need the money. Report this Post to the Staff
