-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8767 Posts	Posted 02/18/2023 5:20 pm Very odd looking to say the least. I would lean towards a deteriorated die but maybe in the ground for a bit too. Don't know for sure. I'd wait and let some other chime in before listing it. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
SomeGoodCents Valued Member United States 238 Posts	Posted 02/18/2023 5:24 pm Okay thanks for feedback, just starting back up. Running through some 1920-29 LWC for listings. This one has such a nice reverse I just don't know? Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8767 Posts	Posted 02/18/2023 5:29 pm If it is Die Deterioration, the reverse die could have just been a fresher die. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
SomeGoodCents Valued Member United States 238 Posts	Posted 02/18/2023 5:46 pm Yes that would makes sense (no pun intended). I'm blessed with the eternal "no added value" finds in my bags and rolls. It's probably just a severe case of Die Deterioration? But I'll hold it tonight and see if other experts chime in with alternate conclusions.

SomeGoodCents Valued Member United States 238 Posts	Posted 02/19/2023 06:35 am Nothing else heard, guess I'll pull another 25S to photo for my listing until I can confirm nomenclature of this oddity. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/19/2023 1:55 pm Possible rust issue on the die that struck your coin. Not a plus for this coin. https://images.PCGS.com/CoinFacts/4...315_2200.jpg https://images.PCGS.com/CoinFacts/2...799_2200.jpg https://images.PCGS.com/CoinFacts/4...093_2200.jpg https://images.PCGS.com/CoinFacts/1...308_2200.jpg Several of these are graded. No mention of a premium for these. https://www.PCGS.com/cert/16051888 Just the condition of the coin. To me I view them as a problem coin, but others may think differently.

Dearborn Moderator United States 96675 Posts	Posted 02/19/2023 3:17 pm very worn or corroded die would be my guess. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 02/19/2023 6:01 pm It is a form of Die Deterioration. The later stages of 1924-s ddo-001 suffers similar though not the same deterioration. Report this Post to the Staff
