200? lincoln cent

I have a lincoln cent 200?. It is off-centered so much the last number cannot be read. Naturally, off-centered on reverse too. Is it worth anything other then 1 cent. I have a few like this (199?.) Are they worth anything?

Howdy legoman - Welcome to the Forum !!

Yes and no - for it depends on a couple things. But they are not worth a lot by any means. How much they are worth depends on the condition of the coin and just how much off center thay are. Usually coins less than 30% or so off center do not command much of a premium - but they can be worth a few dollars. If you can share a pic of the coins - I'm sure somebody here more knowledgeable about error coins than myself can help provide a value.

I've got a couple 200 pennies, but, not because they are off center, they are filled dies

When a person wants to post a picture is it always done as an attachment or is there another format required?

If your picture is hosted on a web service, you can paste the URL into the post. Otherwise, as far as I know, you can either post the picture directly or as an attachment.
