Spence Moderator United States 34425 Posts	Posted 06/24/2021 8:44 pm @dbroo, it is possible that the first part of LIBERTY and the last part of the date were weakly struck, but it looks to me like it maybe just be extensive circulation wear.

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7514 Posts	Posted 06/25/2021 10:29 am Heavy circulation wear does eliminate any premium above face value even if it was all due to weak strike or struck thru. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/25/2021 10:35 am I don't see the V.D.B on the shoulder. I feel this is a teens cent. Note the wide rim? A closer View of the should would confirm my theory. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/25/2021 10:42 am But if the V.D.B. area is totally missing, it would predate a 1922 as the initials were added in 1918. Edited by coop 06/25/2021 10:43 am Report this Post to the Staff
Oldfordman Pillar of the Community United States 2869 Posts	Posted 06/25/2021 11:19 am I was thinking so but could it have worn off? Report this Post to the Staff
