808Treasure New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 07/25/2023 10:46 pm Found this penny- missing FG initials. Although pics don't look the best the coin is brilliant red. Should I send to PCGS? I see a 69 with this error but not a 70- any help is always appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74189 Posts	Posted 07/25/2023 11:01 pm An over polished die issue caused the FG initials to nearly disappear. Very common and no premium. Sending it to a TPG would cost more than what this coin is worth. It would be a waste of time and money in this case. Errers and Varietys.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19155 Posts	Posted 07/26/2023 08:01 am Given the somewhat soft images posted, I'd recommend not submitting for grading. The coin likely falls in the mid to high AU range, not at the high end of MS. Would be a good album hole filler until better comes along. Report this Post to the Staff

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 07/26/2023 09:23 am Your coin is nice and good eye to spot imperfection. Your coin is worth 1 cent maybe a little more if someone really wants it, if you slab it, it would cost 30 to 50 dollars. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96071 Posts	Posted 07/26/2023 1:36 pm question - is the roof floating? or still attached? Usually when the FG initials are missing, so are the uprights of the roof.

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 07/26/2023 3:09 pm You can see the initials in the full reverse picture. Even if it was a no int. it would still be worth .01. Report this Post to the Staff
