The obverse should some to the left top. The reverse shows a lot on the right which also affects the ES in States.....also slight loss to the letter U in united and the slight loss to the E in Ep at top on coin. Is this a keeper ? Many thanks for looking Report this Post to the Staff

What I see on the reverse right side is a possible lamination. The other areas could be a combination of strike through grease, and circulation wear and hits. Collecting since 1972.

Interesting to look at and the cost of ownership is low even if there is no/minimal numismatic premium.
