    Does anybody believe that this one is a keeper I'm just curious. I have run into a lot of these this one is probably a better looking one than the rest so far. I still have a bunch more to go through I'm finally out of rolls I will have to make trip and get t.

    Really worn obverse but if you like, keep it, at least until you find a better specimen!

    Sure, as it’s not in bad shape and it’s 51 years old.

    Since this is posted under the Error Coins forum are we to guess where's the error?
    Other than what's in the circled area I don't see anything else.

    Good eye Tom. I missed that.
    Is that a die chip on the upper arm of the 6 ?

    I think the OP was thinking that it is a large date and it is an error. It is in fact a large date, and it is much rarer than a small date of the same year. I've been looking for one for a while. Still haven't gotten one yet. And it's not an error, it's a variety. Worth a couple dollars, so it's a good find. In fact, any 1960 large date is a keeper. I'd grade it VF-30 or so.

    You may have that backwards.
    Small date is the more rare one

    61;) I'd keep it because of the nice shape that it is in for that age.

    That’s what I said, a keeper.
