Spence Moderator United States 34410 Posts	Posted 11/16/2021 06:52 am Looks to me like George has a gouge on his mouth which has changed his expression. Everything else looks like circulation wear and tear. Sorry but I'm not seeing anything that looks like a mint error though.

Dearborn Moderator United States 96214 Posts	Posted 11/16/2021 06:58 am I'll have to agree with both statements above. (also - images in better focus would help as well) Collecting since 1972.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 11/16/2021 6:25 pm PurloinedCoins, Just to be clear: Post one full coin obverse photo and one reverse full coin photo and one or two close ups where and when needed. Also,clear and in focus,the better the pics you post the better we can help you. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
