Why is the Libertad missing her....

Look closely, this libertad has the girl missing one small piece of her anatomy. Every other Libertad I have seen, has two.

Is this a greased filled die, or something else?

Probably just a weaker strike.

 

she has one innie and one outie

 

This is what happens when people fondle their coins. :devil: It is likely due to a worn die. . TC

 

So just that part of the die got worn huh?

Sounds to me like there is a mint employee in Mexico City who REALLY needs a girlfriend.

 

It was easy to spot the missing piece as that is the place my eyes naturally gravitate towards.

So, how could this coin grade at MS70 with that sort of wear/damage?

 

It's not wear, or the other one would be worn off. Something occurred during the minting process for this to happen.

 

I just realized...

If this was a true error, I'm sure the graders would be laughing when they print the label.

 

Could be, but I'm not 100% sure. It might be uneven wear, or intentional damage. It could even be a modified image or it could just be that it's hidden in the glare.

Whoever owns this coin should send it to me for closer inspection.

 

Not glare, here is a closeup.

 

That is not a closeup of the same image. If it is, then it has been altered.

Is this your coin?

 

Yes, I took another image where there wasn't glare.

 

Aha, then you must send her to me for closer inspection!

 

Think I'm seeing 'high & tight' that's all. Happens.
Or is that a fleck of toilet paper?
