Ali83 Valued Member United States 98 Posts	Posted 08/20/2024 10:25 pm I've been staring at this date for an hour now. I need fresh eyes. What do you think. I think it's a 42... but maybe over 1? To my great annoyance it doesn't seem it was struck hard enough... I'll get a full picture of dime if needed.. Report this Post to the Staff

Alpha2814 Pillar of the Community United States 2023 Posts	Posted 08/21/2024 12:40 pm Is this a D-mint? The overdate is less obvious on that one, but I'm not seeing it here either. Report this Post to the Staff
