    ok, as many of you know my sister supplies me with wheat pennies she finds at work. Well today she gave me three more. This time she didnt clean any ;P
    Anyway, I was looking at one of them and the border was really messed up. I scanned it to show you guys and see what you think about it. Pictures are below. If this is an error, what kind of error is it? Would it be worth anything? Im completely new to errors and know nothing about them.

    The impossible kind, the rims been pushed in post minting, probably got caught in a gumball machine.

    aww man. Then again idk about that, If I could take a pic of the side, the entire side isnt pushed in. It almost looks chipped. But that wouldnt make sense since the border is visible. It would really help if I could capture an image of the side, but for now we are going with the gumball machine idea,

    What about the rim inbetween WE and TRUST? PMD?

    Usually most worn circulated coins with cuts & groves are post mint damage (PMD)

    But still finding a 1924 is neat!
