Late Stage Die Cap (IMHO)

Why didn't I think of that?  As I sat here trying to figure out what caused it, that never even crossed my mind. Sheez.

Funny if it were a 1970S small date.

Ouch, perish the thought. Or as my sainted grandmother used to say; "Dear me Sudsey Mahlush". I think it was a euphemism for some old Irish expletive when someone made a curse or ill fortune befell someone else.
Great find and unfortunately the "7" does look level with the "9" and "0". Even the "9" looks more pointed.

It's not a die cap. It was struck THROUGH a late-stage die cap.

I'm not sure there's enough detail on that to determine whether it was a 1970S small date. I'm not even sure it's a 1970S.

Excellent find Scooby ...... I humbly agree with Mr. Diamond.  Just for fun ..... here is a link to my similar Jefferson roll find ... the replies in that post contain some excellent education on struck-through die cap errors like yours. https://goccf.com/t/70117David
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art
