mb560600 Valued Member United States 356 Posts	Posted 02/13/2025 9:30 pm Came across this 1969-D nickel with the letters CENT missing from the reverse, along with what appears to be a very poor strike of USA and other reverse devices. Is this worth saving as a bona-fide " Greaser", or PMD? Thanks for your opinion! Report this Post to the Staff

mb560600 Valued Member United States 356 Posts	Posted 02/13/2025 11:21 pm Thanks Spence and E&V for your responses. The obverse looks to be well struck and does not appear to have as much circulation wear as the reverse. That's what got my attention and led to my question whether it was a Greaser.
