[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 127099, member: 669"]Hi Rita and [img]http://www.cosgan.de/images/more/schilder/142.gif[/img] to CoinTalk. The good news is that you've found a forum that's loaded with very knowledgeable collectors, willing to share their knowledge, expertise, and love of numismatics. :) The bad news is that without pictures there is no way for any of us to tell whether you merely have a well-circulated coin on which the last digit of the year has been worn off; an error coin of the type known as "filled die", in which grease or other foreign substances get stuck on the dies during the minting process; a damaged coin; or something else. :( A filled die is the most likely answer, and those generally carry little or no premium over full die products. BTW cents minted in Philadelphia don't have mint marks.[/QUOTE]
