Has anyone seen this before or know what it is called? Its a first for me. Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

That area seems to be shallow on this coin. I'd put it in a 2X2 and save it. I like it! ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff

As for the missing shield, I would say a grease fiiled die, as the FB is thinner than normal too. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
