merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/04/2020 02:10 am I believe the date has experienced some flattening (from a hit?). Can't tell about the ear. The rest of the lettering seems sharp, so not sure what happened to the date. This coin has zinc rot forming on it as well. Report this Post to the Staff

Living the Keith Richards life in circulation. So things will happen to these soft zinc coins. 'IT' happens. 44,994 Edited by coop 07/04/2020 2:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff
