Snoopydoo Valued Member United States 443 Posts	Posted 12/02/2019 08:33 am I'm new to this and am trying to identify if there is an error or not. Maybe just a weak strike. Detail is still strong in the rest of the field of this circulated coin. Under microscope I can't see the last one in the date. When tilted under bright light a faint image of the missing 1 appears. Any help greatly appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

Snoopydoo Valued Member United States 443 Posts	Posted 12/02/2019 2:41 pm Thanks for the feedback! I will try and learn how to crop a pic first on my IPad. Appreciate the pic cropping tip. So Grease Filled Die is common, no true error, no added value. Got it! Thanks, and have a great day!& Report this Post to the Staff
