There is no detectable trace of the initials, so I think it was polished off the die rather than being plugged with grease. Report this Post to the Staff

CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 11/11/2011 2:02 pm I don't have a high opinion of a lot of these die-state related errors, or grease plugged dies, because they're really common as a class, but some of them really attract a lot of attention (e.g. three-legged buffalo, "In God We Rust", 1922 no D or weak D, speared bison nickel, no FG halves). I've known about no FG halves for a long time, for instance, but never looked for them because I thought they were stupid, but then I saw that this guy sold a 1972-D no FG on ebay for $160!
