mahgobbi Pillar of the Community United States 549 Posts	Posted 02/18/2008 9:39 pm The 2 in the date looks like 1972P-1DO-009 from coppercoins' website, but I don't see the die gouge in the field below the R in TRUST. Opinions? Report this Post to the Staff

foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 02/18/2008 11:15 pm Its a nicely struck coin. I just cant tell from the picture. The closeup of the date is just a little fuzzy and shadowed. If you can get a better shot of the date. I may be able to say for sure. Could be die # 9 Report this Post to the Staff
mahgobbi Pillar of the Community United States 549 Posts	Posted 02/18/2008 11:54 pm Here are a few more pics of the date. They are equally fuzzy, but maybe one of them has a better angle or something. My camera's macro isn't the best for this type of photo. Report this Post to the Staff
j_h_s Pillar of the Community United States 1934 Posts	Posted 02/19/2008 06:26 am Mahgobbi; I have 25 rolls of 72 cents, BU. There are many coins in those rolls that beg to be pulled from the rolls as variety/error. But after encountering so many upon which the die did not strike well, I gave up believing they were more valuable than well-struck 72's. And some of those irregulars are pretty irregular; yet, they dont have any real extra value. Die Deterioration, MD, sharp or eroded edges on numerals and letters, etc. Jim Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 02/19/2008 08:39 am Your coin is not a doubled die. In order to be 1972P-1DO-009 it would have to have the EXACT same anomaly, and yours doesn't. 1972P-1DO-009, although minor, is quite scarce and difficult to find. Report this Post to the Staff
foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 02/19/2008 6:29 pm Yours is not #9 as coppercoins says. I have a picture of mine around here someplace. If I can find it I'll post it later so you can see what the 2 looks like. Yours is normal for the year. Report this Post to the Staff
