edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 6:17 pm Most like post mint damage by someone altering the coin. CENT was sometimes altered to spell something else. Report this Post to the Staff

Rhamaker New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 8:03 pm Mark, I'm confused. Do you this is a misprint or altered? Thanks for your feedback. Report this Post to the Staff
SilverDollar2017 Pillar of the Community United States 8715 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 8:13 pm It is has been altered. It's no "misprint" or "error". The coin has been reduced greatly in value because it has been altered. Report this Post to the Staff

Could be a "grease filled" exampl. Can ya show us a pic of the obverse - I think 9 $ ain't a bad deal Edited by Mark1959 03/02/2018 11:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
