I can't say with any certainty that it was done with this date, but it was most definitely done with other dates, and denominations, both before...
Looks to be another one from the ear to the center of his cheek as well. That waxy, wet luster you describe is often caused by the...
Doug here's the deal. I don't recall the exact date, but sometime in 1990 the mint redesigned the master hub for Jefferson nickels. Prior to that...
I was a coin collector for basically my entire life, but I never looked through my change after 1967 because I did not collect circulated coins...

Jeff - you also have to remember a couple of things about practices in the 19th century. For one coins were not withdrawn until they were worn so...
