Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4395 Posts	Posted 02/12/2022 4:44 pm I third Machine Doubling. MD + wear can be especially deceiving, but the distortion of the shape of the 4 is clearly MD. Report this Post to the Staff

MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 02/12/2022 8:01 pm I would clean the date with some acetone to get a better look inside the loop of the "2". Could it be a 2 over 1? Report this Post to the Staff
macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5823 Posts	Posted 02/12/2022 8:23 pm Double post. But fairly common for these date to appeared like that on later years of circulated Mercury dime, if you get the chance to search through bags of Mercury dimes, you will know what I mean. These are produced in hundreds of million, so dates gets deteriorate faster somehow. Report this Post to the Staff
