to the Forum. It looks like there was some wear on the die, and there is corrosion on the coin. Even if it was an S over S RPM (which I think not), the coin is spendable because of it's condition.

I think he's talking about the anomaly just to the right and slightly above the 6 in the date that looks like sideways 3 - probably just a lucky stain.

Yes, there's that too. It looks raised to me. It couldn't be a partial dropped letter, that would be incuse. I think probably displaced metal from damage, corrosion or something on the coin. I still think it's spendable.

Could be a lot of things, even an old metal displacement from a hit.
