I have found a 1988 LMC with no designers initials. Is this considered a
error coin or of any value?

Struck-thru grease? Overpolished die? How's the rest of the detail? Hard to say without pics.

The 88's seem to have a very weak designer initials anyway so that wouldn't suprise me at all.Probably just super weak.

Here's my 1988. Looks like excessive die polishing. Please post yours LuckyDime for comparison.

I agree being overly polished.I think they're worth a save.Maybe a new variety as I haven't seen that one in coppercoins.
