<p>[QUOTE="non_cents, post: 1790052, member: 30970"]There can never be "no VDB from the start", as it is included in the original design during the hubbing process. Your coin could be one of a few things, though I cannot tell exactly which, as the pictures aren' close enough. It could be circulation wear, and the coin has just been around for a while and the friction from hitting all the other coins has eliminated the VDB. It could also be die abrasion, where the mint abrades the dies in efforts to remove clash marks. It could also be a minor struck through grease error, when grease became trapped in the die and prevented a full strike of the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
