<p>[QUOTE="Log Potato, post: 1990580, member: 26787"]<b>MUMPS</b> – Refers to coins which exhibit a goiter-like swelling on the neck and jaw of Liberty. Found on quite a few dates from 1901 to 1909. Mostly but not exclusively on O-mints. Usually not noticeable on coins below VF grade. Appears to have been caused by some sort of die buckling. (Also seen on Barber Quarters of the same period)</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: From the Glossary of the David Lawrence book.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
