mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2738 Posts	Posted 12/27/2018 08:30 am I agree that the second, incuse mintmark is a dropped letter. The rest of the coin was struck through the same kind of "grease" that is responsible for the dropped letter. Error coin writer and researcher. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 12/27/2018 2:17 pm Ok well that is good news to hear from Mike. @NYF, for sure save this coin in a 2x2. Not sure whether it is worth getting slabbed or not.

Nyfireman Valued Member United States 218 Posts	Posted 12/27/2018 4:27 pm Yea never thought about that what is everyone's thoughts slabbed or not Report this Post to the Staff
GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 12/27/2018 5:00 pm Probably not slab worthy unless it's going to ANACS with a bulk submission to save money. Not worth it on it's own. However it probably won't sell high without authentication so my vie is get it slabbed by the LCS or a 10+ ANACS submission Report this Post to the Staff
