Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 09/24/2022 6:29 pm I would appreciate any help or opinions regarding this coin, please. Does this look like a second, very lightly struck, S mintmark under the 9 in the date? Or is this a known die clash or other error for this date and mint? Or I'm I just seeing things? Thank you for your time and consideration. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/24/2022 9:24 pm Odd-looking die crack, but I'm open to the idea. Can't believe it's an effaced MM punch. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34425 Posts	Posted 09/24/2022 9:29 pm I don't recall hearing of that die crack previously, but it certainly could be that. Or, perhaps a die dent? In any case, I'm not seeing this as a RPM among the 22 listed on varietyvista: http://www.varietyvista.com/02a%20L...%201952S.htm "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8775 Posts	Posted 09/25/2022 07:46 am As CentSation already stated, a die crack. Here is a link to one of tropicalbats threads, that shows it very well. It happened quite often on the 52's, all mints.
