I would love to get an opinion on grading it asap though because if you guys feel its worth it, I will likely get it certified. Thanks for the help! Please let me know why you pick your grade!

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 09/17/2017 04:17 am It looks to have a "filled" mintmark (die chip) but, other than that, I'm not seeing anything. That's nothing to get too excited over. Maybe someone else will see something.

Jewlz Valued Member Canada 67 Posts	Posted 09/17/2017 3:00 pm Thank you and sorry about the pic. I am having issues with syncing my camera and comp. Thanks for the patience. I though the mint mark was a bit weird and that the liberty and 1979 looked like it had a bit of a doubling. I will take better pics today. Report this Post to the Staff
