1956 penny error?

I found a 1956 penny with the 9 filled in and actually raised a little. Has anybody encountered this? Is this pretty normal to find?

i've checked thousands of wheats, and late 50's cents have a lot of filled letters and numbers. It is fairly common and doesn't add much to the value. Still, I keep them all.

 

Thanks, Im new to all this. I've been going crazy with looking at wheats looking for errors since I found a ms65rb 1955 ddo while rolling change.

 

Rolling change? Wow. I've never found one checking probably a million cents.

 

yea crazy stuff shows up i just found a 1974 d DDO half in a roll while i was looking for silver

 

Yep, I keep them too.

 

Like this link? It is the only one I have found.

 

yeah, I feel really lucky and its made me get more serious about collecting. Ive been reading alot about it and its been fun.

 

I agree - it may not be a major find, but it is cool finding little things like this. Makes collecting interesting and fun.
