jj987 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 01/19/2009 7:53 pm Hi everyone. Can you tell me if you think this is the overdate? The bottom loop of the 8 is filled in like other lower grade examples I have checked out online, but as you can see there is flatness going across the bottom of the hole date Thanks!

desertgem Pillar of the Community United States 860 Posts	Posted 01/19/2009 9:44 pm JJ987, Welcome to the forum! It lacks the "die chip" the Chery Picker Guide says the genuine has near the right hand star. On another note, the mintmark looks different, but maybe all is related to the damage cause. So I would say no. But always look ! Jim Report this Post to the Staff

Exactly. It's similar to the 18/7-D 5-cent piece where the top of the 8, in this case, the right side of the upper loop, you'd see a flat side where the 7 intersects the 8. Thus, the 8 over 7. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
