1911 Lincoln Cent, missing last "T" in Trust

<p>[QUOTE="dhegler, post: 350301, member: 13326"]I had a coin that my late father had given me years ago... It is a 1911 lincoln cent, which is missing the last "T" in Trust. I've looked at it at 16x and I can't notice any irregularities in the metal which may indicate someone tampered with it. It is in good-fine condition, if I remember right. "Trust" is worn more heavily towards the right side (the last T), but should not be bad enough to wipe out the entire letter. Is this kind of error even possible? It does seem plausible that a die would be made that fully omits a letter, but maybe it was mis-formed?</p><p> </p><p>I am no expert numismatist (I think that's right), but am trying to rekindle an older interest in collecting coins...</p><p> </p><p>Does anyone have any information on this type of error, or know how much it may even be worth, if there even is any premium?</p><p> </p><p>Thanks!</p><p>Dan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

Does anyone have any information on this type of error, or know how much it may even be worth, if there even is any premium? Thanks! Dan[/QUOTE]
