1995 half with almost no date showing...ERROR?

[Scott (Upstate NY)]

I should probably post a PIC but right now I can't. Are there any known errors concerning a 1995 half dollar struck such that the date is almost not discernible?

It could be a filled die error, where grease used to lubricate the die stamper blocks part of the coin design. This happens more frequently on small coins. Without a photo, this can't be confirmed.

I agree, most of the time it has been struck thru grease. Usually carries little if any premium.
