Greetings all it seems like there's a few issues with this 1970 d. I researched them and I always come up with the wrong answer LOL. particularly looking at the date maybe some doubling in it compared it with machine doubling looks different. Then check out the I in Liberty. Could it be an extra metal from the bottom of the I or did it take an environmental hit?? I don't see much on the reverse except maybe the r in America looks like the loop extended between the r. As always professional help as welcome thank you
A spender. I think you may be looking too hard. I think we all did that when we were bitten by the collecting bug.
That's what it's called The collection bug no wonder I've been driving myself nuts I don't know how many times I got bitten LOL I'm going to get a better close up anyway
yes we all have been there it's fun but very disappointing. it will soon pass and you'll grow wiser and know what to look for and soon be digging through Flea mkt boxes like a pro. Give yourself time to learn, and welcome to Coin talk
For the mark between L & I (LII), I don't see one listed for a 1970D on the cuds on coins site: http://cuds-on-coins.com/lincoln-cent-bies/ but the website's a great place to look if you need a reference for a liberty chip. Good hunting!
The I in the photo seems to look notched. There are 9 DDO's for the date/mm although the photos really aren't sufficient to tell. http://varietyvista.com/01b LC Doubled Dies Vol 2/DDO 1970-D.htm
