SomeGoodCents Valued Member United States 238 Posts	Posted 05/27/2020 8:38 pm Yes, I'll probably go with "an easy F to me" if listed. However that uneven wear on letters LIB is suspect, hardly no depth compared to ERTY, is that just damage? Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34427 Posts	Posted 05/27/2020 9:11 pm @SGC, sometimes we see wheat cents with damaged Ls and we attribute it to their use in bubble gum machines. This coin has been used extensively so it is a little hard to know if the first part of LIBERTY was damaged or if it was struck lightly due to a little grease in the die.
