    It obviously took a hit and made the 7 into a T. Beat up from circulation but it is a little off center despite the wear.

    Great looking cent, too bad it's not UNC. Wonder how it happened?

    Wonder if that's just a chip on the top of the one.

    I have seen hits on copper move metal around to make some interesting oddities.... But I do believe that this one takes the cake!

    One down and 25 more to go unless you want both upper and lower case then it's 51.

    The only way I see this as a hit is if the "T" was actually a "7" originally and it took a hit right where the two lines intersect at the top right corner. The hit pushed the vertical line towards the left until it was even with the horizontal part of the "7". I don't see how any other number could take a hit and be changed to a "T". A perfect hit.

    Or it could be PMD to a T.

    I expect to see this one counterfeited soon and selling for zillions on eBay.
