77 Penny Question.

I was looking over this penny and it Appears to have a lot of MD. But looking at the Eye. The Eylid carries over and Appears to form another Eye.

Circulation damage IMHO

 

Only one eye, but what is with the 4th column of the memorial...?

 

Not too sure. Lookd like a couple may be Double and Also things inside

 

Hard to tell without coin in hand, plus being a new member, maybe one of the more experienced members will respond...?

 

Possibly a die break or die crack. But pictures are blurry. If it is raised and it looks like a crack, then it's a die crack. This is caused when the die hitting the coins literally "cracks". Hence the name. Or it could be a die break. Die breaks are bigger (usually) and just looks like a splash of metal got on the coin.

 

Heres bette pics of Reverse.

 

The eye has taken a hit.

 

Looks like a die break. Worth 1 cent IMO.

 

Grant, here is a cool die break.
