!941 American Cent Error coin Philadelphia

  1. Hello All,
    I just found a coin in a roll of American pennies and it has an error on its reverse side I've not seen before. Can anyone offer a clue or explanation on what it is and how it was created? Any information would be very much appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Dave

    Looks like some sort of struck through error.

    is a 1941 penny made from ammunition shell casings?

    Not really. That's an amazing Lamination but not worth that much.
    I have purchased similar errors for about $40.00 - $50.00

    No

    Correct
