Spence Moderator United States 34402 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 2:50 pm @ram, any chance you can carefully remove this coin from the 2x2 and post new pics? The glare from the reflective plastic is obscuring some of the features. Whenever you put a coin into a 2x2, you will definitely want to flatten those staples. Also, can you please describe which design details are missing from the grease in the die? I'm not seeing what you are, so a little guidance would be awesome. Thx.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95740 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 3:11 pm My thoughts as well, Jimmy - and if it is there it is most likely a weak strike due to the obverse elements hogging up most of the metal to form the bust. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/24/2022 12:28 am Not seeing the usual spots associated with greasers. Perhaps a close up ( out the the holder please) might help. Tell us where/why you think it is a grease-filled die? Report this Post to the Staff
