Its a penny with damage on it. PMD not a mint error.


Thanks,
Jacob

 

yea, just damaged with age....do some research on known errors and spare yourself of taking photos of them all.

 

I'm talking about those lines on the bottom.

 

I know a Jonathan Marks. Maybe he has a sister named Penny. I dunno.

 

Ahh I see that's called a Miss aligned die strike also known as an MAD.

Thanks,
Jacob

 

Thank you.

 

VERY common in the 1970's in general, for some reason I am unfamiliar with. But they are all over the place for some reason. I have solid date rolls in which 10 or more show it. More so in the earlier 70's, but still...

 

That's why I like this forum. I'm learning a lot.

 

Here's an exercise you might like. Try lining up a year sequence, one per year. Then note how the spacing of the design elements change several times. There's one at 1969, another in 1982/3, depending on whether you get a LD or SD 1982, and several more subtle ones. These are known as rehubbings.

 

First of all, that's why I joined this forum, so I can learn more and second of all this is the fourth photo I take out of hundreds of coins I have.

 

i went through $40 in Cents today.....I try to do a box a day
