    Late 90's early 2000's.

    Going on the basis of relief I would agree.

  • Thank you, its ATS now, just got the grade MS64FS...........
  • they changed the reverse design to show more detail on Monticello near 1971 (pillar/guard rail at top of building)

    and then again in the mid 90's to make it flat and ugly for extended die life



    so in the 70's or 80's would be my guess

    The 72PD have a different look about them but 73 through 75PD are also possible if they can be found with 6 steps.
    1977 through 81 have, well, had the reverse of 1977.
    The 1982 through 87 all had deep-dish like strikes.
    The 88 and 89 started to flatten out then there was a change in around 1990.

    But the bigger picture here is that the obverse has such a weak strike.
    You need to send that puppy to me so I can take it off the market.

    The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

    Is the coin graded? What's the green on the obverse?

    I'll bet the jelly doughnut the year is 1999.

    With my agreement about what others have said about the possibility of being late 90's to early 2000s, I think it look earily similar to others I have seen from that year... and with the amount of errors from 1999 out there, it just seems to fit.

    Hope this helps!
