[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 3206772, member: 90692"]The OP coin is in great shape, but the deterioration of the strike by the die lessens its appeal to collectors as this is extremely common. It is the result of overuse of the die, and happens again and again over all denominations from all countries. For the other 4 cents... Paddyman98 gave you good scoop, both '70-Ss are large date (low 7) types, the 68-S is maybe AU55, the 68-D has corrosion along with the wear. PlanoSteve beat me to it, but gave you some great guidance on posting. If you haven't already, go to doubleddie.com, John Wexler's website, and read the sections about "Worthless doubling" and "How dies are made". These sections explained a lot for me concerning damage that you find on coins one finds from circulation or coin roll hunting. Welcome to CoinTalk and good hunting! Spark[/QUOTE]
