ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19275 Posts	Posted 07/18/2021 1:34 pm Is that feature raised, or incuse? Might be a case of Pareidolia, or a very small strike through, or a well-placed hit. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/18/2021 1:40 pm It doesn't match any part of the design. And doesn't appear raised. So it is not a die issue. Report this Post to the Staff

Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4408 Posts	Posted 07/18/2021 8:07 pm I agree, this is likely some type of circulation damage. Based on the font of EPU, I'm almost certain this isn't a 1978-D. This style reverse wasn't in use until at least 1986. Edited by Tanman2001 07/18/2021 8:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 07/18/2021 11:14 pm To me, in order of likelihood, this looks like either 1. A stain/bit of corrosion on the surface of the coin (aka just damage), or 2. A tiny die chip that is just forming and hasn't fully broken away yet. Either way, worth 10 cents.
