T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 05/18/2015 4:21 pm Not too sure about that. If the 0 took that kind of a hit to make it look like a D there should be some kind of abrasions or scuff marks showing near the 0 in date. IMHO. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/18/2015 6:03 pm Note how the damaged area is parallel to the rim. Coin wrapper damage. Report this Post to the Staff
koinpro Pillar of the Community United States 1781 Posts	Posted 05/20/2015 8:13 pm Very common from that era for the digit of the date closest to the rim being damaged. Might have been coin wraping machines but some say parking meters. Report this Post to the Staff
