Hi, I have this cent that I think may be the coin in the subject line, but I may just be putting my own bias into it. I would be very grateful for your opinions. The Thanks! Adam

Not seeing MPD, date position looks incorrect for FS-301 (Snow-2).

I thought the same thing. Also the denticles aren't distorted like in FS301. However, there's something down there that looks like at least an 8 and possibly a 6, but they are very faint. It could just be a collision with another coin.
I drew an outline around the 8 and 6 I see... It shouldn't be there, but there it is.

I agree. It's not an MPD.

The outlined 8 and 6 are too close together to be an MPD. I think it is just wear and corrosion on the coin.
