I picked this one up in a grab bin for cheap. What do you think it would grade? Also, I'm not too familiar with Mercs. What do you look for in FSB? Does this have them? And finally, what do you think of the little spur of silver under "TRUST"? It's not a Cud; maybe a nick in the die?

The scratches on the obverse at the base of the neck and near the "Y" are on the holder, not the coin.

FSB refers to the top, middle and bottom of the fasces (bundle of rods) on the reverse. And very few FSB is available for 1945 P. Thousands of dollars in MS.

Yours are flat common one (missing band in the middle) worth a few dollar at most.
