I checked the bottom of the neck and cannot find anything. I am not sure if it's because the coin is worn. The coin weighs 11 grams exactly. Please help and thanks much Report this Post to the Staff

Only the No LCW obverse does not have this shamrock. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
