j0Nasty New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 01/19/2023 7:25 pm It's missing the L in Liberty and I can't tell if it's an s (which I believe it is) as it's damaged there also. I don't know if this is a striking problem or occurred after it was made. Thanks, I'm a noobie as you can probably tell! lol. Edited by j0Nasty 01/19/2023 7:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff

j0Nasty New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 01/19/2023 7:36 pm Thanks for the welcome and the quick reply. I'm trying to learn about valuable wheat pennies primarily. I have three steel 1943 and about four 1944 copper... of course I need them the other way around! What about the missing L. Do you think it was damaged after the minting process or during?
