HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25413 Posts	Posted 04/17/2024 03:56 am That's what it looks like, Alonzo - Struck Through Grease and a misaligned die. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19195 Posts	Posted 04/17/2024 07:29 am Grease issue, yes. Also a (very) minor obverse misaligned die. As is, one might get 25 to 75 cents for it--perhaps one dollar if lucky. Report this Post to the Staff

Can he get $50 dollars for it? I am not aiming this directly at you. I am just stating a major problem nowadays. ebay auctions have people thinking any small imperfection will bring people a lot of money. A lot of people get sukered by these auctions and only find out when they get in touch with the realities of the coin hobby that something like this is so common that no premium is added to the coin b/c of such a minor example of a Grease Filled Die. Sometimes someone will find where the missing letters make an unusual text like, "In God We rust," hype it up, and get a few more bucks. But mainstreak collectors typically see this type of thing for the common happening it is and do not put more value to it. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
