<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RonSanderson, post: 25910252, member: 77413&quot;]The 1927-S did not have good strikes or good dies for the most part. The NGC Coin Explorer had to use this coin as its plate coin, in spite of two corrosion spots and an amazing lack of detail. </p><p><br /></p><p>The bust is covered with small grooves from the planchet. Perhaps the striking pressure was reduced to preserve the dies, so the metal was not forced fully up into the die and could not eradicate the planchet dings and dents. It has to be tough to tell if these are worn or not.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1650018[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>My example cost $108.50 from an eBay seller. I was curious when I saw they only have a 33% positive feedback score. Apparently this seller is semi-retired now. The score was from having only 3 feedbacks in the last year. Nonetheless, I was happy with this purchase.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1650020[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1650019[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1650021[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
