Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 08/21/2018 6:40 pm Well, considering that 1973S RPMs are ONLY on proof coins and there are none for 1974S at all, then it is doubtful these are. Both are MD, the 74 shows same movement on date...1950S took a hit that flattened the lower curve. Do you bother to check any references prior to posting your question? A lot of the learning how to spot these comes from working the reference books... http://varietyvista.com/ Edited by Crazyb0 08/21/2018 6:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff

cldague Valued Member United States 493 Posts	Posted 08/21/2018 7:15 pm Yes, I checked with Variety Vesta and Wexler, but to me some of those pictures don't really look like much at all, but I don't have a trained eye that's why I come here. I could not find anything for 1974 S, so does that mean nothing will ever be found because its not listed? I don't know these thing, but I am learning.Thank for you time.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75224 Posts	Posted 08/21/2018 7:35 pm As said, both coins show Machine Doubling, and the last coin shows a hit on the mint mark. Remember, Machine Doubling always reduces the size of the devices. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 08/22/2018 6:40 pm Nothing stands out at me with the current images. Try and include the date in close ups for referencing MM location. Thought I was seeing an inverted MM at one point, then realized the image was upside down. Quote: I could not find anything for 1974 S, so does that mean nothing will ever be found because its not listed? I see one 1974S listed on coppercoins. Also if I'm not mistaken, I believe everything that is currently listed at one time was not. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
