If you can get clear, sharp pictures of the field in that area we should be able to answer the question for you. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/15/2019 3:31 pm With the floating roof, weakened statue and weaken 'FG', I would call this a die polishing event that happened to the die. So every coin that was struck with that die will keep showing this die event. Depending on the die state when this event happened, there could be tens of thousands of coins with this die event, or sometimes hundreds of thousands of these examples from this die pair. So I just call them die events, and pass them on down to circulation. (To me, a variety coin collector, why would I save common stuff?) Report this Post to the Staff
