    What is the seller trying to say, that he has an error coin?

    If that doesn't make it sell I'll bet he tries again noting that the date is not in Roman Numerals. Not only that but Lincoln is facing right. Another inportant feature is this coin has Liberty stamped right on the face. :goofer:

    ahh just carl, I can do that one better, I have a lincoln cent where the mint forgot to add a mintmark to the coin, I call it the P mint coin, (for Phantom mint mark) there are assolutley no tooling marks to show the mint mark was removed, yep I am saying that it was minted without a mint mark, who knows how many heads were rolling (something) that day when the mint struck a coin without a mint mark? Every oncet in a while you will see coins like this offered, what makes my coin unique is that I have made up a name for this sort of error. The P mint coin, my name has caught on so well that some fly by night dealers have used this term also, but I will bet you a dollar to a donut that they cannot produce a certificate of authenticity signed by me that it is truly a p (phantom) mint coin.
