I thought something might be there but when I looked closely I couldn't see even a cast of a number. It looks like a cross cut.

Yeah, and when I compare with real number 6s, the top of this number starts way above the top of the 1s, so I'm just seeing ghosts.

That's why, as a novice, I'm unsure of it.

1910-S-1917-S If there is not VDB on the shoulder.  1918-S or 1919-S if there is a VDB. But the rim is wider, So I'm thinking earlier.   |

 1917-S. At first I thought it was a 19, but the 9 had a curve on the lower part of the digit. The one in the image didn't have. Also I thought it didn't have a VDB from the image provided. Edited by coop

So, it's a 1917? When I look at the "7" in the image it's closer but am I seeing it wrong? Like I said, I'm a novice, so not sure what I'm looking at.

Did you see the VDB on the shoulder? If not, it's probably a 1917-S. that is the only digit that would have the shape of the area where I placed a red arrow.

No I've not found any markings at all.

So it is a 1917-S. Always nice to be able to figure things out. (Things like this bug me, when I can't nail it down)

I think what happened here is because of all the circulation wear, it wore down the 7, causing it to be very weak
Errers and Varietys.

I measured the distance and the distance is too far for a 7. Also, did you see the "+" sign where the 7 should be?

This must be a Greaser - wear would not eradicate a single digit! to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog
