Also the number 9 looks different. What's everyone's opinion on it. Sorry the pictures aren't that great hard to take them with it in a package. Report this Post to the Staff

But you can take it out of that package and place it in a 2x2 for much better protection (or even an album if that is where you are placing your cent coins. But the 9 in the data has a nice big die chip. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 4:02 pm I agree, a broken post 9 die chip. Fairly common among 1950's era cents. Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 5:52 pm to the CCF and One other thing, littleton coin doesn't have a very good reputation. They pick coins out of circulation, put them is a sealed bag and sell them at inflated prices to unsuspecting people who don't know any better. Report this Post to the Staff
