CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2805 Posts	Posted Today 9H 10M ago The surface of the 4 looks shaved and flattened but how does that explain the missing left and bottom areas? The fields around those areas seem to show die wear lines which you wouldn't expect with damage or grease fills. "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 78857 Posts	Posted Today 7H 42M ago Looks like damage to the 4 to me. There is die flow lines present. Might just be coincidental. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21879 Posts	Posted Today 7H 30M ago Hard to say sometimes what happens to a coin after it leaves the mint. If it is not a Grease Filled Die then it is damage of some sort. Report this Post to the Staff

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7585 Posts	Posted Today 5H 55M ago I agree with PMD as well, the 4 in the date already has a short leg to begin with, it wont take much of a contact to push it off. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 106442 Posts	Posted Today 3H 5M ago the 4 is damaged. the horizontal bar at the right end looks smashed from a hit. Just to the left of the vertical bar looks like an old scrape. and the bottom of hte vertical could be from more damage, or a tiny bit of grease at the end. Collecting since 1972.

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8978 Posts	Posted Today 1H 1M ago That is quite odd that the flow lines go right through the area in question. There are some odd lines coming out of the center of the 4 too. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
