    Sorry I didn't post any pics. I wanted to check all the markers first. Just wanted to know if they were proofs only.

    So then may I ask 1more Q. I checked for die marker and the one under the chin is the only one I could find. This coin is clearly not a proof, so is it counterfeit or struck on a wrong planchet. Or is it possibly a A die clash. There is a second line under the chin on this coin it's up against the Adams apple, I don't know if you can see it very good.

    Hard to tell from the photos but it looks like a scratch on the coin, it could also be a die gouge or strike-thru.

    It appears to be a genuine coin with no errors, just damage and would be worth about 3 - 25 cents depending where you sell.

    I'm sorry about the pics, this pics is blown up 30x. There is a raised line I think that it's blown up to much to see it good. I think someone got wonky with it.

    Even if it was a die gouge or strike-thru it is small enough that it would not generate much collector interest.
