Hard to see in scan, very clear to eye. Rev. Raised lines both ends of memorial roof (2nd level) to inside edge of rim. Also raised lines 2 small circles at base of left pillar. Coin also has a frost or coating to it. Just die cracks ? Reminded me of a roll of washington dollarsi got at the bank. 24 of them have that wild whisker die crack.

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 09/30/2007 8:33 pm Sorry, very common. Especially on that date. Best thing to do is look through roughly 100,000 coins, pull out what's odd, go back through the odd ones, weed out the common "odd" stuff, then what you have left, if it's not damage, could possibly have value. Learning the difference between common anomalies, post-mint circulation damage, and the valuable stuff takes a LONG time and a LOT of coins. Do not expect to find something worth collecting in the first jar, bag, or can of coins. Expect it to take months of constant searching to find anything worthwhile. Report this Post to the Staff
bonham3 Valued Member United States 346 Posts	Posted 09/30/2007 9:02 pm Yes, Thank's I think I understand you. Even though I have been a hobbiest collector as a young child I got back into it just recently. Especially learning about error /oddity coins. Only have gone through a few thousand recently and already I see similarities on a few dates. Takes time and patience. Not looking to get rich but it is fun finding something interesting. Hell, I get all excited when I find a dime in a roll of bank pennies :) Just learning the error language is schooling. You must also love your work as you at least take the time and explain to people who ask a lot of questions. Hey, even at 50 I'm always learning :) Thank's again Report this Post to the Staff
