On the reverse the "O" in "Dollar" is missing. There is no wearing around the O itself and I would find it hard to believe only the O is worn. I don't know what else to think. It is the slanted 5 variety but I have never heard of a missing "O". Any opinions please. Report this Post to the Staff

While it might be considered a minor error those who collect this series prefer complete strong strikes. More times than not classic coinage with minor strike problems reduces value, rather than enhancing value. Report this Post to the Staff
