RPM's.. Repunched Mint Marks fall into the Variety category not the Mint error category. What you told us about your mint mark sounds more like a plating issue.

 

they may address my spelling, acknowledge. I had to look that up.

 

Trying to upload my photos im lost

 

Use the "Upload a File" option at the bottom of your post. Select "Browse" to search for the correct photo, and once you have selected it, use the "Full Image" option to add it to your post. Do not use the "Thumbnail" option because it sucks. Repeat this procedure if you have more than one image.

Like to get some prediction of it right

 

Its a large date, I don't know much about varieties paddy does.

 

Oh yeah i also have about another 300 wheat pennys and steel wheat

 

What about mint mark on side have you seen that at all

 

Not sure that's what it is, it could be what they call damaged PMD, but I only know enough to get myself in trouble, lets waite for others.

 

Sounds good gotta charge phone

 

That's just damage on your 1982 D "Large" date. It got hit on the bottom right and pushed up left.

For instance, if you look left to that large hit and metal pushed in and over; you can then correlate that something hit the "D" just correct and pushed the metal to the left. Copper is very soft, and this is very common all over the coin.


FYI, the coin is 37 years old in the "wild", being circulated where they get all sorts of damage.

 

Sorry but your coin is damaged. The mintmark suffered a bit after it left the mint. It's worth face value

 

7 business strike varieties in 82 3 copper, 4 copper plated zink. large and small dates. but the d im not sure of whats going on with yours.

 

PMD post mint damage.
