John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/17/2015 3:41 pm to CCF. Sounds like a Grease Filled Die or just damage. I photo would help. If it is a filled die it would not be worth much of a premium but more than just the silver value. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

sgarten Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 09/18/2015 12:17 pm Awesome find! I'm sure error collectors would pay extra for it... Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 09/27/2015 6:02 pm Just another L berty coin. Just kidding. It is exactly that, a greased filled die and usually error collectors would pay decent for that. Nothing really great but for sure worth a few dollars more than just a Mercury dime.
