The 9 has simply been damaged, hit by something. You can see similar damage on the other numbers in the date.
The coin was simply punched with something. What you see as an S is just the shape of whatever the coin was punched with. It could have been...
As stated, face value. I'd still probably stick it in a 2x2 holder. It made it this long pretty nice, I'd try to protect it.
Did she say why your 1977 struck over a 1941 is on a clad planchet which wouldn't even exist for another 24 years? We are supposed to believe...

That is an excellent picture, thank you. It does show even better what we have been telling you all along, it is damage. You are not going to...
I am not seeing the diagnostics. Even with your arrows and circles I just don't see them. If you are that convinced just send it in to be...
Nice! I went out today and the only thing I found was that the ground is still frozen a couple inches down!
I love that pigeon picture, I can't stop watching it.
Now it is a 10 centavo but Denver still had not minted coins for Ecuador since 1944. Tell you what, send this coin off to PCGS. If it comes back...
Let me get this straight, it was a normal cent, then overstruck as a coin that doesn't exist, in a mint that didn't mint them, it is invisible in...
I'm going detecting too! Looks like the frost may be out in the sunny areas.
Welcome to the forum. It always helps to point out what you are seeing, kind of helps us along. I think I see what you are getting at, but looks...
What do you see that you feel may be an error?
