You can see the 2*, Lerty and only the top edge of the "in God we trust. The first pics are more of the true color to the naked eye and the second set is under a super bright flourecent light. Do think it is Struck Through Grease or a light strike or? Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

Sorry for having to ask so many questions, I do try to look around the web first but you guys have better info than what I find. I know you feel like you repeat info a lot Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 03/29/2018 9:51 pm Grease Fill or debris played a roll. But some coins can show a combination of mentioned issues. I think I see a little of everything going on here, but does differ in intensity between images. Images seems to show some die wear and die polishing on top of IGWT. Grease on the lower obverse. Some weakness on SW rim obverse and a bit weakness on the memorial reverse. Probably covered to many bases, but that's what I see with current images. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
