I came across this 1976-D while roll hunting today with "smearing" on the front, and a cracked appearance on the back. I've seen this before online, but I don't remember the official term for it. Would it just be considered a die error? Pictures are below for your convenience. Your input is greatly appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 06/25/2013 12:45 pm Tilted mintmarks are common since the mintmark was added to each working die by hand until 1990. Pic is not good enough to see if it is a repunched mintmark but even so, the condition would kill any value that a minor RPM would carry. Report this Post to the Staff
