<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 8651277, member: 92655"]Hi Tegan….. The Liberty nickel was a very hard working series and it is common to see them in very worn condition. That doesn’t take away from the fact that there is over a hundred years of history in that nickel making it very very cool……. Now I guess you are asking about a possible error due to the date digits missing. I suppose that could certainly be the result of a filled die. I would be more inclined to think that somebody with too much time on their hands removed the first and last digits of the date. Used to be common for folks to create art with their pocket change. If you want to go down a deep rabbit hole, Google 19th century love tokens and you will get a taste of what I am talking about. Still is a very cool piece though![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
