Got these from an old boss that collected. 2x2s labeled sm 60 only. All four are BU easy. Have fifth one but only the bottom of R if filled in. Another thread maybe.Suggestions on a good pic set up would be cool, used to doing this....

I have 4 of them in a row. I think they were overlooked & just labeled sm date 60. To not see that is just ridiculous.

Yeah, it's kinda ridiculous, but they were probably etheir overlooked or the guy didn't know what error this was.

It's a common error. Thus the reason they changed over to the large dates. Die chipping was the issue. They were in such a hurry, the larger number of RPMs were from quickly trying to get the dies in production. While new ones find interesting, these in no premium for die chips in general. I'd never buy one or sell one. Just an oddity that happens as the die gets older.
