I found this very unusual 1946 wheat penny today, it looks like abraham is sneezing. Can anyone help identify if this is a common error or rare. Any Value? Thanks everyone.
Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately your cent is just damaged. Took a hit from something. Keep looking though.
Yes copper is easily moved someday when you have time take a flat head screw driver and play with one, (Not Recommending But Just A Thought).LOL Dave
2 things came to mind when I saw this. 1) He has bad allergies and it's snot or 2), he was laying next to grandma's ravioli wheel and she went a little too far. (I could possibly be hungry while I saw this coin!LOL)
Just a guess KC...It looks like blow back from a welder. I had it happen to my wedding ring in less amounts, but I have the metal residue from the welding rod on the ring rather than the molten gold from the ring....looks like PMD sorry.
