1969-s penny rim error

I found the 1969 s penny today and the rim is really interesting. It seems to become inverted on the "Liberty" side and the edge become very sharp and narrow before it slowly becomes normal again on the "1969" side. I'm interested in worth, yes, and learningmore about this type of coin error. I did a search online and could find nothing. I look forward to all the replies. thank you

thanks again for the insight!

 

Struck with worn out Dies,is the 1st thing that comes to mind.

 

slightly off center strike, no added value

 

Thanks for the info. If you can't tell, I'm new to this. So, errors of this kind do not add value because they're not rare? I'm just curious what kinds of errors add value so I know what to keep an eye out for. I really appreciate the help.

 

these coins are fairly common, from what i can tell it's just a little off center. worth 1 cent.

 

Not off-center, it's a MAD (Mis-Aligned Die), very common and it doesn't add a premium unless it's so far off that design elements are missing.
