Valuable ink smears errors have a very LARGE smear. The serial number will often be light or dark or slightly drippy. Here are some in smear...
It probably came out of a plated set that was hawked as collectible and valuable. And when the people took it to a coin shop to sell it (more than...
The quarter has been spooned. Look in the search box here, there are several threads on that, and it shows you how to do it.
You can see where the plating has worn off in a few areas. A steel cent was plated over.
Barber made some pretty androgynous looking Liberty's. Something is missing, but not too much. Wait for an expert. [ATTACH]
