JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21631 Posts	Posted 09/30/2022 3:50 pm to the CCF Even increasing the size of your photo, I can't see what you are considering a 5. Chances are it is damage anyway as there is no way for a random 5 to appear during the minting process. Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 09/30/2022 3:57 pm I agree, not much can be seen from this photo. Please always show us both sides of your coin. From your description this sounds like post mint damage. Report this Post to the Staff

Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4404 Posts	Posted 09/30/2022 11:09 pm Quote: the coins with a 5 on the cheek were said to be on SMS coins Just a coincidental die scratch on the cheek imo. Calling it a misplaced 5 is a little absurd. The discoverer (Robert Lawson, who now runs the YouTube channel Levels linked) publicized this variety (earlier, from what I can tell, via coin publications and confirmations from Ken Potter and Billy Crawford) recently via coin YouTube and by a ebay BIN listing at a ridiculous price that gained a lot of attention, it got into the CherryPickers' Guide (will be in the next edition if that ever comes out), so I guess it's one to look out for.
