Looking through a couple boxes of halves today I came across a 1974-D which, at first appeared to have no "FG". Upon examination with a 10X loupe it appears there is a hint of a miniature FG just below the eagle's leg. The place where the FG should be (maybe a little SW) shows, possibly, where FG was, but is now gone. Sorry about the picture...best I can do right now. What do y'all think?
from what I see the fg is still there, but tbh I never have thought the missing FG to be anything other than a minor greased filled die and it is over hyped. Kinda like the missing vdb I seen many people going on about years ago with the 83 Lincoln cent. Sorry just my opinion.
