<p>[QUOTE="RandyK, post: 4131842, member: 105781"]I should have waited to get home and post photos. This 1945 S is ANACS slabbed MS 65 RED. To the eye it is a very good looking coin but under magnification the file marks are there. Not on the devices, just the fields, so that tells me it is from die work. I got it on the cheap because it is my birth year and for my 75th birthday I want to build myself a slabbed set of 1945's in MS coins. Is it possible to find when this cent was slabbed? Just curious because it may be an RPM that is not noted on the slab. I will now post some photos, there not the best but it is all I can do. The dark spots on the obverse are not actually on the cent.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1069660[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1069661[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1069662[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1069663[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1069664[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
