Morph Valued Member United States 99 Posts	Posted 05/16/2021 4:41 pm When looking at the date just above the 60 and the E and R I see what look like marks I cannot identify above them. I have seen this a lot on the 1960 nickels I have been going through is this anything special? Report this Post to the Staff
