Is this a rare coin to have and is it valuable? I know for sure it is a die error or a grease error. here are some pictures to show proof there is no L in liberty in the penny:The penny itself in a not-so-good conditionDo you see that there is no L in Liberty?   11-01-2009, 01:51 AM   #2 (permalink) rlm's cents Numismatist     Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Oklahoma Posts: 5,528 My Mood: Very likely a grease filled die. They are far from rare and probably worth more for the copper than the collectability. __________________ The monkeys stand for honesty, Giraffes are insincere, And the elephants are kindly but They're dumb.

No L.. get it. On that note I should probably get to bed due to me getting more and more sillier as the night goes on.   11-01-2009, 02:03 AM   #6 (permalink) fishaddicit Senior Member     Join Date: Jan 2009 Location: Hawaii Posts: 415 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by sweet wheatz Isn't a little early for Christmas coins?
