biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 08/04/2009 11:08 pm It is what is known as a fantasy coin- something that was never actually minted in a particular design/date combination. It is an imitation of the 1986 Statue of Liberty Centennial commemorative and almost certainly not composed of silver. Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 08/04/2009 11:42 pm Could be a struck thru grease error where part of the 8 was obliterated. Is the "0" tiny or normal size as compared to the other numbers? swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
