1982fan New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 03/09/2024 11:17 pm hi just wondering if anyone could tell me anything about this coin? ive tried searching google and err-ref and maybe I'm just really bad at looking this stuff up, but I can't seem to find any info about this particular year missing the FG. all ive come up with is that no FG is no longer considered an error. any one know if thats true? thanks in advance. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 03/10/2024 01:00 am I see most of both letters in your last image. It seems like they've just been degraded by heavy corrosion. If so, it wouldn't get any "no FG" designation, if there is one. Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6495 Posts	Posted 03/10/2024 12:49 pm I don't think it's a die polishing issue. The ragged metal crack below the FG makes it look like the copper flaked off there, taking part of the lettering with it. Report this Post to the Staff

1982fan New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 03/11/2024 10:23 am No obvious corrosion on the coin at all. Its actually been very well kept. The dark colored dots are a purple and blue toning the camera makes look black. I noticed the ragged break and was wondering if it might be a lamination issue. Appreciate the comments!
