I looking at the coins, I ran across this penny with the 4 just barely showing. Is this just from a bad die or truely an error?

Another Whitman jefferson nickel book that you can see the front and back of the coins that is full. 2 Mercury dime books, one over 3/4 full, the other was 1/2 full. 3 Roosevelt dime books, 2 are lacking 2 or 3 coins apiece and the other is over 1/2 full. I got the whole mess for $5.00. I think I am going to have fun finding the coins to finish these books.
