Dearborn Moderator United States 95936 Posts	Posted 04/13/2023 7:07 pm It looks like a gash due to the shadow, but it is a small dent curved like the edge of another cent tagged it.

dsking Pillar of the Community United States 2365 Posts	Posted 04/13/2023 7:13 pm Possibly low end VF Not long ago I had 9 of those little buggers. I gave a few of them away to fill wholes in a friends Whitman. I think I still have 4 or so. They came from my Mom's collection. Yours is purdy! Very strong VDB!

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/13/2023 8:06 pm I'll say VF-30, agree the gash might detail it. Edited by Coinfrog 04/14/2023 09:28 am Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95936 Posts	Posted 04/13/2023 8:15 pm thanks all, I guess I'm a-bit conservative when it comes to grading. Collecting since 1972.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18663 Posts	Posted 04/14/2023 09:42 am i agree with coinfrog. VF30. probably details but not 100% certain as if it was PMD it would expect whatever did that would have hit the rim as well/ so its possible it was already an issue on the planchet FYI - only MS coins are assigned colors Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18663 Posts	Posted 04/15/2023 09:20 am looking at your closeup photo I think what might be a hit by the date looks more like a planchet problem. probably grades straight too much detail especially reverse to call this one VF20 however its your coin and I can see you lean more to conservative grading. the difference in value is only a couple $$ from 20-30 so it doesn't really matter much Report this Post to the Staff
