<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lardan, post: 8505706, member: 138663&quot;]I read a many years ago the reason the 1913 Type 2 came out was due to the problems the government had with the Liberty Nickel. When the Liberty Nickel first went into circulation nowhere on the coin was the word &quot;cents&quot;. This resulted in many were passed as five dollar gold coins by painting them and reeding the edge. With&nbsp; the raised date on 1913 type1 the government thought a repeat would of some type would occur again since the date wore off quickly, or instantly&nbsp; if removed on purpose.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
