There is a very faint "S" below the ST of STATES. When I look at it, I can see a full clear S. However, when I took pictures, it didn't show up taht good, which is why I included an outline on the first one. Anyone know if this is actually an error?

If it was my imagination, how did Frank see it? :vanish:Nelson, could you please not make a mean comment on the threads I start? Just for once? Now, like usual, everyone's just going to pay attention to us arguing and say things like "Brothers!" and no one will actually respond to the original question.
Quit over-reacting. I told you what it was, you didn't want to believe it wasn't an error so you posted it on here to try to prove me wrong.
I see it too Hambone, I agree with Colin, you shouldn't pick on all his threads..BEHAVE! lol ok..so this is the second post about coins with 'ghostly' letters on them..so what is this caused by? I don't buy the 'coins bumping into each other' explanation
ghost letters can be caused by grease filling a part of the die and then falling out, onto the die. The next coin struck will have the impression of the grease struck into it. Also, Spock-- can that work if I put my key dates together? I'd like a couple more 1913 S Barber quarters.
Cool! So that's what happened. Thanks Frank:hail::bow:. Maybe one day I'll actually find something worth something.
