Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5240 Posts	Posted 03/10/2018 10:48 am I found this 1974 D LMC and am having a hard time determining what if anything this cent is other than a normal cent. Variety Vista shows two varieties with only thickening on IN GOD WE TRUST and the 4 on the date and that is for both of the DDO's attributed. This cent doesn't appear to have anything out of the ordinary except that the complete date is thickened. It doesn't appear to be PMD nor does it look like normal circulation damage. I am including in the pics a normal 1974 D pic of the date. I am needing some help with this one please. Report this Post to the Staff

There is a normal/thin date and a wide/thick date. Your first coin is a wide date while the second is a normal date. Neither are rarer than the other so the isn't extra value for either type. Look at ODV-030 and 031: http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...arieties.htm Report this Post to the Staff
