Take a look at this picture. I  tried to get as good of an image that I could scan. I appears that this one may have slipped by inspection?? It appears that the blank round (possibly) before it was stamped got 'scored' just inside the outer edge!  Smiley

Take a look, it's consistent throughout most of  the coin (between the lettering and year stamp on it).

What do you think? Is this a rarity?

I see what you mean. Think you need to let others have a look I am not a coin guy. We got a new member krazycoinlady  I think is her name that has a coin shop she may be able to help. I need to find her myself think I upset her telling her I sold all my silver coins to a jeweler to melt down, need to tell her I was pulling her leg.

LOL that's a great story! By the way, melting down US legal tender (coins) is illegal too. They passed a law about that a while ago, when the copper penny became more valuable as copper from what I read.

Zul, that looks to me like a heavy strike, not a scoring. It happens a lot on the smaller coins like dimes, a bit less on quarters and even less on half dollars. It's unusual, but not a rarity. Call a coin shop and verify.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.
