coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/06/2016 09:23 am Another case of not enough magnification to see for sure what it is. It might be glue on the coin, a struck through error, lamination issue or PSD. Hard to see for sure what it is from the images provided. Also there is something going on above LIBERTY near the rim?

Dustin6 Pillar of the Community United States 3516 Posts	Posted 10/06/2016 09:27 am Not an off center strike though. There's no way, maybe a MAD, but too minor anyways and with all the damage, it is still worth what it says on the back of the coin, unless it is a strike through, which we will need better magnification to tell Report this Post to the Staff
