coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/26/2013 3:33 pm I don't get excited about these. The grading companies have stopped listing them. Just an abraded die or grease error. Report this Post to the Staff
chzman Pillar of the Community United States 1137 Posts	Posted 10/26/2013 3:35 pm Ya, even in the best shape I know they are not worth much to anyone, but I was born in 69 and I am a bit partial to coins from my year. Report this Post to the Staff

TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 10/28/2013 10:17 pm I think it is from grease and metal particles building up in that area on the die which gets compacted more and more until the die surface is flush with the field. Report this Post to the Staff
numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 10/28/2013 11:18 pm I've found & spent a few 69 no FGs. Nothing special about them unless you want to collect them. Report this Post to the Staff
numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 10/28/2013 11:22 pm Bye the way, some firm is selling no FG halves. They're no big deal either (at least to me.) I guess the 3 legged Buffalo started a bad trend. Edited by numismo 10/28/2013 11:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff
dbrablec Pillar of the Community United States 1944 Posts	Posted 10/29/2013 07:14 am they are at least a "fun find". there is probably a small premium - to the right buyer. I have only found one, a 1988 - an I have kept it in my "unusual" coin collection. I like it. to each is own... Report this Post to the Staff
