Not sure if that posted or not this site hates me!!

 

It's not often that you find a perimeter crack like that on Lincoln cents. Nice one!

2016 cud

 

I'm not seeing it - a cud is a broken die that includes the rim of a coin causing a "blob" of metal to be raised up on the coin that includes the rim. Here's an example:

 

It's so small but I swear it's there just left of Vdb

 

By the V

 

I'm new to this and this site I have a question I have a steel penny but its a 1959 no mint mark is that possible?

 

No - probably just a nickle plated copper cent. See if it sticks to a magnet.

 

It does when I first got hold of it I had to clean it up. Had to clean first and rust off it googled it and first thing I found was to stick a magnet to it and it sticks

 

This is y im sooo confused haha

 

Well nickle is magnetic - is it weakly attracted to the magnet or does it jump to it like a piece of ferrous metal (iron,steel) would?

 

The only magnets I have are my kids ABCs lol so they ain't really worth a crap they nearly stick to my fridge
