Looks like an added mint mark, would like to see better close ups.

It's an altered 44-D. second "1" is much higher than it should be

Not even a good alteration either. Even with the horrible pics I can still see remnants of the first 4.

Also the abnormal gap between the 9 and the 1 is a good teller. The date looks like 19 14 not 1914.

Buyers will NEVER learn. Next up, positive feedback for an "awesome coin".

One of the saddest things is that you can buy a certified one in that approximate grade for roughly the same amount or less.

Altered '44. And not a bad one.
I need to get a table of date alterations up on TBC.

I think that the $175 wasted will make the buyer wake up to learning before impulse.
If not..oh well.

However, possibly the Mint remade that 19 14D to help collectors fill a space.   I just don't know why or who would buy such stuff. When are people going to learn? |

I would have bought it. Only, and only if the seller moved the decimal in the selling price over four places to the left! (and included free shipping)  Edited by Nickel Guy
