Well, $5 is around $4.95 :)
^^^^^ Oh that would be even better.
It's worth around $4.95
I thought about dropped letter, but the color in this case makes me think it is something else. It might not even be an S intentionally, and just...
Grading is very expensive. A coin needs to be worth a lot of money, or something that needs to be authenticated. (A certain type of error, or gold...
