ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19126 Posts	Posted 02/09/2022 3:37 pm Given the photo posted, it appears the coin took a circulation hit which effectively 'clipped' the S. Note the linear ding extending from the T which lines up with the 'clipped' edge of the S. Report this Post to the Staff
