Should I send in to get attributed? It has a "6" or "g" punched to the far right on the bottom of the Jefferson image on his coat. Report this Post to the Staff

Can't be from when it was minted as it would have to be raised on the die in which case there would be thousands of them out there. Technically this would be a defect on a proof coin.

bethanyb1201 New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 01/19/2019 11:29 am I took this out of a sealed proof set so had to be something that happened between minting and packaging. Report this Post to the Staff
bethanyb1201 New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 01/19/2019 11:44 am I am going to take it out of the 2x2 and look closer cause I THINK it is raised. I know it doesn't look like it from the pictures. I will lightly run my fingernail over it(probably destroy it in the process) and see if I can tell. Report this Post to the Staff
