Hinkle Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 These are so fun to find. Didn't think I would find one in the San Francisco mint. That is so cool. Put that in with my collection. I don't think there were any found in the San Francisco mint. But I could be wrong lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 The "Floating Roof" and no FG can occur on any LMC business strike as it is caused by overpolishing the dies. What you may be thinking of is the 1970S Proof Strikes Crawtomatic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you may be thinking of is the 1970S Proof Strikes Thanks Greenstang, see I learn alot more even though I'm looking up certain coins. That would be hard to find one on a proof. Thank you.

Greenstang Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Quote I learn alot more even though I'm looking up certain coins Best way to learn is by asking questions of something your not sure about. Another way, if you aren't already doing it, is to read previous posts and see what other questions are being asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you check it? lincolncentresource.com http://www.lincolncentresource.com/smalldates/1970Ssmalldate.html Hi Karen, yeah it's just the way I took the pic. It does kinda look like a small date. The zero isn't perfectly round and the nine is pointing towards the S MM. But I did find another one yesterday but not for sure if it's a small date or not. The top of the zero is smush in a little. The zero is perfect round. And the 9 is pointing the right way. I might post it here in a bit to get feedback if it is or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just look at the top of the numbers and the curl of the 9. You say if the 0 is round it's Small and oval it's not? Please don't share me any memes showing them. I hate them cause too much info makws my head hurt. Lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, usually it's a small date if the zero is round and the date matches up at the top. You're right about it matching up and also the 9. But this coin doesn't match up, the 7 drops way down between the 9 and the zero. KarenHolcomb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
