Chump_Change Pillar of the Community United States 618 Posts	Posted 02/14/2010 10:17 pm OK I got this in a buy. Never really looked at it and I am showing my true colors here. Looks like I can make out 1915. Am I seeing this right? Also Are these Chop marks that look like cross hairs through a scope? Kind of curious. Thanks all. Report this Post to the Staff

weerdsteev Pillar of the Community United States 1291 Posts	Posted 02/15/2010 08:51 am It is a 1915. The date has been chemically restored. Does it have a mint mark on the back? The scratches look like they were deliberately inflicted on the coin as they look like an almost perfect "X". It's still worth something if you're lucky enough to find an S mint mark on the back.

mycrob Pillar of the Community United States 2602 Posts	Posted 02/21/2010 10:16 am I agree this is 1915 restored, and it is scratches on the OBV. Check the reverse carefully for mint mark, or possibly, the rim will be too worn to see the mint mark. Report this Post to the Staff
