Those two marks are damage.
Grease on the die which blocked the last two numbers in the date.
That is an expensive lesson, and add in the grading fees. In the end it’s a details (no grade) AU coin. It’s a good lesson if you learn it. Still,...
1949-S, 1951-S, 1953-S, 1957, 1958. I just never been able to find the right one.
Nice looking with the LI struck through grease. Not worth much but I’d keep it.

That coin is one I wouldn’t touch if the price was only a dollar.
Nice looking Peace Dollar. Shame it got an AU details grade. All 1921 Peace Dollars are high relief.

All damaged after it left the mint.
It’s a zinc cent so false doubling.
That coin was clashed alright. I don’t know with what as it’s damaged but it clashed with something.
If you go, good luck detecting and find out and obey the laws. North Carolina had a few strange ones.
