<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ClarissaD., post: 2877301, member: 90471&quot;]Hi all,</p><p><br /></p><p>New here, I just recently started collecting wheat pennies and I&#039;ve found what appears to be an error on the back of a 1940-D penny. I&#039;m not familiar with collectors jargon so forgive me if I&#039;m not describing this properly... But on the back where the wheat things are, it&#039;s extra shiny as if an extra sliver of metallic luster somehow was overlaid onto the original design. From what I can tell, it&#039;s part of the cast so I imagine it is a printing error. The shiny sliver runs the length of the wheat on the left side but on the right side the sliver extends up to the &quot;E&quot; in &quot;ONE&quot;. It&#039;s incredibly shiny despite the overall dirtiness of the coin.[ATTACH=full]688861[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]688862[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m going to try to post pics, hopefully it works... any info on what error this is and whether or not it is valuable?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
