CarlOmaha Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 02/14/2019 03:23 am I bought this long ago with a few other S pennies (68 to 74) and just noticed that this one has a floating roof. The set of pennies were all labeled BU. I am wondering what value this has? I hope you like it. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 02/14/2019 04:53 am I still see attachment of the roof,so I would not call it a floating roof...sorry. As to value,check ebay sold values for an idea. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
CarlOmaha Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 02/14/2019 10:35 am Thanks John1. Your eyes might be better than mine. I tried different angles of light and still could not see any supports for the top of the roof. I concentrate my focus on the left and right edges of the top roof and I see nothing there. Should I be looking elsewhere? I'm a novice and at the mercy of the experts. Most humbly yours, Report this Post to the Staff

This error was caused by over polishing the dies to get rid of a Die Clash. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 02/14/2019 1:17 pm Report this Post to the Staff
CarlOmaha Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 02/14/2019 12:28 pm Thank you, again, John! I understood what caused this, but I am wondering can I call this one a "floating roof"? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/14/2019 1:13 pm You can call it that. But as far as I know there are no premium for these. PCGS used to grade these and quick because it was very common. Thry turned down submissions back a few years ago. Report this Post to the Staff
