DACWG183 Valued Member United States 86 Posts	Posted 09/28/2021 6:30 pm Hey everyone. I got a package in the other day and this was in it. 1967 Dagger Date. I assume this is some type of error? I just don't see what this is describing looking at this coin. Maybe one of you guys can fill me in on what "dagger date" is. Whatever is. Thanks and God bless. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97320 Posts	Posted 09/28/2021 6:52 pm Except for the shape of the top of the '7' It seems to have a 'hangman's' hook at the end of the horizontal bar and the vertical part has a slight curve to it.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 09/28/2021 6:56 pm I think this was just someone's personal description, not a mainstream numismatic term. Excellent photos, btw! Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 09/28/2021 8:11 pm @dac, I agree that the date looks pretty normal.

DACWG183 Valued Member United States 86 Posts	Posted 09/28/2021 8:13 pm Thanks everyone. I figured it was something made up. Luckily I didn't pay a premium for it. Probably .50 at most considering the lot and overall amount of coins. Not all are errors. This guy has some interesting tone if nothing else. Thanks for your input. Report this Post to the Staff

DACWG183 Valued Member United States 86 Posts	Posted 09/28/2021 9:05 pm @coinfrog I have a friend that knows I recently took up the hobby. He has the opportunity to purchase real estate on a large scale and has quite the business. In some cases (sadly) the family left doesn't care about what their deceased collected. They either leave behind or sale to him. Sometimes they leave the entire contents of the home. Anyway. He calls me for coins, arrowheads or anything antique he doesn't want himself. I have several older flips with writing on them I can't bring myself to take out. To look at the effort and time someone put into their collection is worth more than any coin to me. Anyway. Without giving names and my source I hope that answers it. Report this Post to the Staff
DACWG183 Valued Member United States 86 Posts	Posted 09/28/2021 9:06 pm But I have searched my fair share of rolls. Finding one in the wild is hard but very satisfying. Report this Post to the Staff
