    Hello everyone! What kind of Error is this?? I figure it is an "Uncentered Broadstrike" because it affects both sides and it is... Well uncentered. Thanks in advance. :)

    No. It was a previously encased cent.

    Correct. Previous encased Cent.

    Look at how the edge is crushed smooth (flattened) all the way around. That occurs when they apply force to the encasement around the coin.

    Remember that not everything that looks strange, different or weird is automatically an error ;)

    Some desperate kid needed a penny for candy (in 1958) so popped out mom's lucky cent. LOL
