Hi Everyone

I have a slew of coins I am going through and need help finding their value. I have a 1973 coin. The "li" of liberty are flat and there are some other damages as well. Just wondering if this was worth anything? I appreciate all your help!

Tanya :)

I moved your post to the appropriate section for the proper attention.

It sounds like the letter were pressed down by some force in circulation, but pictures would help.



Here is the tutorial about uploading and posting images

And here is the CCF Free Image Optimizer to help crop your images.

Please preview your post/pictures to be sure they are rotated correctly.

Even if it were a Struck Through Grease event, those are quite common, and hold little if any premium. Post pix so we can accurately assess what you may have, some may really be a mint error!

To the CCF.

You use the word "damage". Damage is not an error and
actually devaluates the coin. An error is done during
the striking of the coin and can increase the value.

I agree with Jimmy and a photo of the coin will help.

Damage isn't an error. It would be Post Strike Damage, because it happened after it left the U.S. Mint. Although, pictures would be needed of course.
