[QUOTE="ryanbrooks, post: 401697, member: 10924"]Okay, where do I start? I recently bought this 1888 Indian Head Penny, and when the seller had posted pictures, I thought I saw something under the date. I bought it, and now i have it in hand. The price guides say that the only over date for that year is an 1888/7. I will be truthful, and I do not see a 7 under the last 8. But I do see something! I am thinking either a "zero" or a "three". Or who knows, maybe there is a seven there? Is there a way to tell if this is an over date with out looking at the date specifically? (it is just way too small). Are there any other signs? Many thanks!
