OK - work on those pictures. You'll need crisper shots for us to do a diagnostic for you. Tips for taking pic's - Find a heavy object of an...
I agree with our fellow enthusiasts: damaged. Possibly two events. Partially done in a washer/dryer (worn reverse) and a vise to flatten the rim.
That is a fine looking coin!! I agree with our fellow enthusiasts: max'ed out. I'd actually be worried CAC would go lower.
Thanks Larry. Folks can build a complete set from CRH and pocket finds (Jefferson Nickels). The reality is that by the 3rd or 4th box, a...
Rusty - welcome to the hobby!! Lots to learn and enjoy!! It could be that the O in ONE is worn from circulation or could be affected by grease...
A fellow enthusiast of ours has a 500 box challenge underway which should produce some exciting results. About 4 years ago I was curious to see...

Lots of varieties for the 60s LMCs. In the high state of your coins you should have a potential for few valuable cents (dollars but not $10s)....
The easiest diagnostic for me is the last S in STATES. On the 40 reverse there is a serif where on the 38 reverse there isn’t. Yours has the serif.
Not a lot, but if it’s an attribution coin a little more because of the provenance.
I agree with Thomas. A common cent worth a cent. Not something you’d want to send to a TPG.

I didn’t see this clash listed but this one was close. It is part of the progression. Nice find!!...
