Can dates on old coins look different as they are struck?
I was wondering if the way a date or any other part of a coin for that matter, can change as the coins are being struck or from changing from a proof to a business strike etc.?
Thanks!!!
Laurie
I have a coin from 1875, there are not a lot of others to compare it to. I took it to a coin shop and they had no idea if it was a restrike etc. The only other one I have found online looks a bit different..
If you mean old as in the past 200 years, usually coins that have different looking parts are considered errors, some worth much more money than a regular (1955 Lincoln Wheat double die for example).
For coins older than 200 years, I don’t even know if they had any kind of quality control, they may all look a little different from each other. But I’m just guessing on them as I don’t see or deal in them much.
