Recently rescued from the wild. Couple obverse nicks, otherwise uncirculated. Found in SF Bay Area - which is surprising for a coin from philly. Most unc coins here are Denver mint.

Thoughts on what appears to be a minor Struck Through Grease spot next to the duck's back? Does it hurt (or help) potential value? Am guessing this is somewhere between a $20-$50 dollar coin - so maybe doesn't it really matter that much?

It's in a flip in the collection, asking more from an inventory perspective.

Nice find! That spot next to the duck appears to be a Struck Through error.

My thoughts too regarding the spot. Was curious in this case if it hurts or helps the value, if at all?

yes - Struck Through Grease - Does it detract from the value? I'm not entirely sure. It was created during the strike, so I don't think it would...

And nice find on the extra tree error.

For anyone wondering which tree is the extra: go to the upper tip of the state, and straight down. That crooked short tree sticking out isn't meant to be present. I guess you would call it the fifth tree from the left, of the right side of the state. There is supposed to be an empty gap over those rocks on the ridge.

@mrak, I think that is a loon, not a duck. I have seen Struck Through Grease like that before on modern nickels.

@Khromtau, thanks that's the bird I was looking for!

Yeah, I've come across a decent amount of Struck Through Grease coins - the 2018 Apostle Islands quarters have a ton.
