It is a nice example.
Maybe the raised horizontal lines between NTI (MONTICELLO) or lack of details between the columns on each side of the main door under the gable roof?

Does look pretty normal to me. The only thing not mentioned so far that I see is the tiny die crack between the first two letters of GOD.

Nice coin. Perhaps those lines are a reflection of Monticello's steps--in the water after the sprinklers ran one night.

At first I thought of a serif on the S in TRUST but that would be more special if you had one in the lower left end of the S. This looks normal to me with some not too bad scuffs or hits.
It's a better date, I would have saved it too without any other reason than it is a definite "keeper".

Yoko, very nice coin.
If we look STATES OF then IVE CENTS than TICE and E PLURIBU, (E it is the most strange), and then the other side: I see like MD, but for this year I will say the Hammer and Anvil move during the strike in the opposite directions, Could be just the angle of the light.
The lines you talk about seem to be die polish.

Even the images above are more than 10 years old. I think it's safe to add the coin to my non-error/variety collection. Thanks for all of the suggested flaws and possible errors. I didn't see a lot of the things that other members did. One last question, do you think it would straight grade with the scuffs and scratches? What grade do you think the coin would get? (No, I'm not sending this one for certification.) ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

Yoko, it is a very nice 1938. what TPG will say I do not knows. For me is over 62-63. Scratches over the time affect modern coins in grading and your coin do has to many or majors one. Overall it is a desired coin in the collections. It is a 83 years old coin in perfect condition. And I think the scratches come direct from the mint. Look of the Mint handle the coins over the years and you will understand me. |

(Staight grade, no "Details".)
