1988 FS-901

Hello Thompson2. Thank you for your reply. Yes sir, you are correct. What threw me off on this one is the vertical leg on the G of my coin. It appears to have a small serif at the top of the leg but I agree it does not exhibit a full serif at the bottom. Some other things I noticed were the thickness of the initials, the curvature of the G and it’s vertical leg being wet outside the top of the G (on a vertical plane).  It looked to me to strongly resemble the 1989. Maybe I found a hybrid..... :)

Its my opinion that you found a coin that has sustained post mint damage and a hit has flattened the section of the "G" initial.  Its easy to see what we want to see on damaged coins.
