jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2203 Posts	Posted 09/29/2024 12:10 pm Hey everybody! What do you make of this? Is it a one-of-a-kind error that Heritage, Stacks/Bowers and Sotheby's will be fighting tooth and nail over to obtain? Or is it just a simple example of post-mint damage. (sigh) Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95806 Posts	Posted 09/29/2024 1:05 pm yeah, it looks like a normal Greaser to me too. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Keith67 Pillar of the Community United States 6542 Posts	Posted 09/30/2024 05:48 am Looks like damage to me also Report this Post to the Staff
Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7510 Posts	Posted 09/30/2024 10:24 am @Marve65 called it. I don't think it is a Greaser either, it looks like a scraping contact mark in that area pushing the metal in the digits out of place.

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7028 Posts	Posted 09/30/2024 2:37 pm Keith,.... remember the designer for the obverse of the 36 thru 38 Roosevelt dimes was Una Dogga Katcker so the initials under the bust would be UDK.......... Report this Post to the Staff
jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2203 Posts	Posted 09/30/2024 3:15 pm And just in case some people still believe it, the designer was not Joseph Stalin. Edited by jpsned 09/30/2024 3:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff
