The proof with the disappearing 3 is the one that carries the small premium,, filled dies on a circulation strike coin is not considered rare. I would like to see your coin though !!

Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 09/16/2006 7:52 pm Hi Pennylover your coin is the result of a partially filled die,, this is extremely common on cents, it adds no value to the coin. Thanks for sharing the pics !! Rick Report this Post to the Staff
