<p>[QUOTE="icerain, post: 1390910, member: 34514"]I was in the coin store recently and a good customer came in. He had a few interesting items he wanted to show the owner and us. One of them was an IHC with a DDO on the date, I cant remember the year but it was pretty cool to see. How many IHC DDOs are there? I have never seen one yet. And sorry I couldn't get pics as this was in the store and I have a crappy phone that can't take pictures.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other item was a 1983 mint set. The Lincoln cent had a strange strike in the S, it looked like the die shifted during the minting process and the edges of the S had deep gouges. But this is the funny part, when the guy started talking about strike marks in weird spots the owner took another look. Guess what it was? the owner after looking at it through a loupe for a minute stated; "whoever packed the coin drooled all over it" I'm guessing somebody sneezed on the coin and packed it anyway, pretty disgusting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
