Hey guys want to get your opinion on abes nose here I'm trying to learn the call these on my own my first thought was wear but then when I started looking around at the face and the eyebrows and the cheeks I didn't see that kind of wear on the other parts of the coin so I appreciate any thoughts or comments on it
If you're talking about what appears to be the flat areas inside of the nose, it's likely from an over-polished die.
My God...he shot his nose off...actually I would think this is just an interesting filled die type of error. Correctly promoted could bring good bucks on e-bay.
You think so I thought it was pretty funny when I saw it and then I was just going to throw it in the bucket and I thought well what the heck I'll throw it up there on coin talk and see what they think about it never thought about selling it
Well I appreciate it guys I personally after thousands of pennies that I've gone through I've never ran across one like that so I thought it was kind of unusual
Good learning tool/experience. Someone here quite some time back did up a board with all sorts of coins with explanations as to what they found them to be. Good for coin clubs and teaching newbies these different/unusual anomalies.
Well coin talk and you guys on here have been a real real big help to me cuz I had never dealt with coins before I retired and it was just something new to do it's been a lot of fun it's a little aggravating to of course I never knew just how many different type errors there where until I bought the books but they get it right a lot more than they get it a wrong that's for sure but maybe here in the near future I'll be able to give some advice instead of always asking
