allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 07/02/2023 3:33 pm So a bit of a puzzle here. Found a 1999 D which looks proof like. Unfortunately it is not marked as a S for San Francisco and on top of that it is a Close AM. It's a bit of a enigma to me! Let me know your thoughts after you review the pics (Sorry for so many). As always regards to all. Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 07/02/2023 4:59 pm Nice coin. The thing that surprises me is on that PCGS68, they didn't take in account the fingerprint and Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96315 Posts	Posted 07/02/2023 5:56 pm somebody did a very nice job of highly polishing this coin. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Khromtau Pillar of the Community United States 676 Posts	Posted 07/02/2023 9:11 pm I think not polished, I do see a pattern from the minor flow of metal along the surface of the die. Report this Post to the Staff
Dutch-Tigger Valued Member United States 301 Posts	Posted 07/02/2023 10:28 pm I agree there is no blending and smoothing of any of the design elements that polishing to this high of a finish would cause Report this Post to the Staff
nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 07/02/2023 10:37 pm don't forget that all allcoinsaregood's coins look over reflective and digitally processed. so this coin is probably an early die state business strike Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/03/2023 07:57 am I have seen similar coins and attributed them to struck from newer dies which makes them look proof like. If I remember right, I had a give-a-way a few years ago when I found a bunch of higher-grade cents roll searching that looked like that. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
