1970 S coin

There is some really goofy stuff getting posted.

No such thing as a Micro-S on a 1970 S cent. There is no price guide anywhere that lists one.

The coin in question had the die polished which thinned out the mint mark a little bit.

Prior to 1990, mint marks were added to dies by hand and the positions and the depth of the punch can vary.

In other words the coin up top is a normal cent worth 25 cents.

Thanks,
Bill

Just trying my loupe on the end of my camera, an happened to have an opened roll of 1970-S Lincolns in my drawer.

 

I've been away and would like to know if this info. was posted some where else. Has the info. been found yet? Or is there info. on it to be found. Just asking, sounded like you knew what you were talking about.

 

not yet. I have most of my books packed up.I am moving soon!:kewl:

 

Wow, moving again!
Ok, Ill wait, Thanks

 

No it just has taken so long to refinish & update the house my wife inherited. we still have to do 2 bathrooms and pull up carpet then refinish the red oak flooring.
then I get this house ready to sell.we are taken our time to make our last move right!

 

I used to live next to a bologna factory when I lived in PA. There is a similar aroma wafting from this thread

LOL!

 

LoL, wafting, I asked a simple question.

 

Please don't take offense. Your question is excellent ....One of the other folks leaving answers was highly inventive without the aid of facts, so i was just adding a little humor to the fact that we are awaiting his facts to back up his answers

Again, there is nothing at all wrong with your question.

Thanks,
Bill

 

Ah, gotchya Bill, LoL.

No offense taken. To tell the truth, I've been monitoring this thread for a while to know if I had something out of the norm. But, at the same time, I know how much of a hassle it can be to find info when in the middle of a move.

But yeah, I would have found it hilarious had it not been about a post that I had started, LoL.

 

It seems you might be waiting for something that is not there.

 

I think this bears repeating--I'd hate for anybody to look through rolls of 70-S for a non-existent "micro-S"--finding a small date is hard enough, hehe. :smile

 

Careful, you'll be accused of ganging up on someone.

 

I was only seconding Bill's comment. :smile Edit: the one I quoted below.

 

Which one? Where he lived near the bologna factory?

The good 'ole blob S. At one point it occurred to me that you might be thinking about the '74s.

 

No harm in admitting you were wrong Jello. Most folks will respect you more for it.......

 

Thanks for the update jello.:thumb:
