<p>[QUOTE=&quot;asciibaron, post: 250492, member: 8566&quot;]how can the rays be &quot;worn&quot; but not the leg, skirt, or right hand?&nbsp; this is a 1945, an odd year.&nbsp; odd years used the previous year&#039;s die with a re-punched date.&nbsp; i&#039;m willing to bet this coin was minted from a well worn die and there are some die cracks on this coin that are not visible in the pictures.&nbsp; maybe some die filling is also present.</p><p><br /></p><p>you have to get past the toning and look at the surface - once you grade the surface, then evaluate the toning - does it detract or enhance.&nbsp; for me, this coin would be at most a 65 due to the toning - i don&#039;t find it attractive, but it&#039;s not horrid.</p><p><br /></p><p>-steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
