<p>[QUOTE="mrbensteele, post: 1563695, member: 41740"]About a month ago when I returned to work I was counting my cash drawer like usual when I noticed an odd penny, not the first penny or other coins oddity ive found, but this one has a lite relief on its reverse side, the Lincoln Memorial is barely visible but the obverse is well struct though your can just barely see edges of what would be the memorial on either side of Lincoln's Bust. The Rim/Collar is fully struct but raised high on one half of the obverse, but the rim is almost non existent on the reverse. I did alot of pic searches and came across several pennies that were indentical and other US coins, they were called Uniface Strikes. Took it to a coin dealer and he also said it was a Uniface, but might have been a Struck Through Error, I suspect its worth a little cuz he tried to presuade me to sell it to him for cheap, and kept saying it wasnt anything special, I didnt sell. Uniface errors matched this coin to closely to be anything else in my opinion, and Uniface examples run for about 70 on ebay. If this is a Uniface, is it worth being slabbed, its already in a flip. Pics will hopefully be ok, Ignoire the blue fuzz</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]212461.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]212462.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
