<p>[QUOTE="pvcoachcraig, post: 826135, member: 23800"]I have a penny that I have taken to a couple dealers and they did not know what to think. One offered me $50 dollars for it, but I did not sell it. I bought 500 dollars worth of wheat cents years ago. It took me some time to go through all of them, but I found what looked to be an uncirculated 1909 penny. I turned it around to see if it was a vdb or not but there was no back to it. The penny is smooth like the back half peeled off. I read something on it years ago, but it was before I obtained the coin and did not pay it that much attention. I know that planchets were made out of rolled copper, but I was not sure if it is possible for it to end up like this. There is no visible damage and since it is smooth I don't think it is possible that a tool was used. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. If anyone is intered, I will dig it out of the safe and post some pictures.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
