coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/20/2016 09:24 am You have a coin that has suffered a few die events. The die is showing a breakdown on the edge of the coin making a rim appear inside the rim of the coin. This happened a lot on the 1980's Zincolns. There is also die polishing scratches on the coin above LIBERTY. These happen after a die has been polished to remove events that happen on the fields. (clashes and other events) The mark on the tip of the 'R' is just a contact mark. If it were a hub doubling issue, the other devices would also be affected. Nothing warrants a premium for you coin, but knowing what happened helps. Report this Post to the Staff
cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 08/20/2016 09:50 am Good eye and nice find! You have to look but you can see the extra thickness on the 6 of the date fairly well on this one. The notching on the S shows up well also. Report this Post to the Staff
