Is that chunk thats sitting just under the steps come from the T just below? Also, the letters on the obverse, do they look kinda fat and doughy to anybody else? Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34464 Posts	Posted 07/09/2022 07:45 am I'm with @john on this that the divot in the letter T and the extra metal on the steps are two different events.

Dearborn Moderator United States 99822 Posts	Posted 07/09/2022 08:26 am Well, what I see is MD on the obverse. Overall it the dings and gouges looks like bag or bin marks on the coin that inflicted during shipment to the next facility prior to being rolled up. Collecting since 1972.

smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2347 Posts	Posted 07/09/2022 09:04 am I thought at one time the 1977 LMC had an attribution for a DDO? If it was removed does anyone have info on how to look up removed listings? Thanks! smat Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 07/09/2022 10:01 am Are you trying to tell me this coin came from an OBW roll back in 1977 ? Everything I'm seeing are hits and dings on both sides . Bag marks did not do all this damage . Save it only for sentimental value . Report this Post to the Staff
CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 07/09/2022 1:31 pm Yes sir this is one of the ones out of the roll I had to open, making sure it wasn't a coincidence that all 3 had '77 P's on the end! And just about every one in the roll so far has had some lil dents and dings? Report this Post to the Staff

Which once again illustrates that the term "OBW" is a misnomer. There are so many circulation hits on this coin, my guess is it's been around the block more than a few times.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/12/2022 8:28 pm I agree with Merc, and others with MD. The stairs it is a hit not an Cu dispatch by the die. On this part of the coin the hit will simply crack the material. Report this Post to the Staff
