1972 Lincoln Cent Assassination Coin

Discussion in 'Error Coins' started by Comedian Joel Cooper, Jun 1, 2015.

  1. I have been collecting coins for years and honestly am still learning about error coins and other rare collectibles. I recently came across a 1972 "S" Lincoln Cent with a "bullet hole to the head", that I have never seen before and couldn't believe what I saw.
    It has several things that make it a rare coin. The attached pic shows the errors and I have not been able to find anything like it online and would like to know what you think and if you have seen anything like it?

    Thank You IMG_20150531_132710.jpg

    well, since you are an admitted comedian, you know the answers to this.

    welcome, but you have to try harder.

    All fingers point to PMD - Post Mint Damage
    By the way Lincoln was shot in the back of his head .. not the front o_O
     
  5. You said admitted comedian, at first i thought you said a committed comedian. Lol.. I was released.. Jk.
    What do you mean try harder? Please explain as I am looking for anything and everything to help? Any advice or information would greatly be appreciated.
    And thanks for the welcome. Thanks for having me.

    First, welcome to the neighborhood, Joel!

    One thing you come to expect is that any coin that has been in circulation for 43 years is liable to acquire any number of odd-looking or coincidental marks labeled as PMD.

    The bullet didn't exit.

  11. I am a full time touring comedian. Perhaps you should go down to wal-mart and pick yourself up a sense of humor. Im sure yours would be by the douches.

    That wasn't funny at all.

    Is that the best come-back you have? You'll have to do better than that to prove yourself to me.

    That's why he's a touring comedian and not a performing one. :)

    [​IMG] And like my daughter once told me.... 'You just don't get it mom'... ummm... I don't get it. I have just come across a 1971 D Lincoln penny that's got what appears to be..."triple dye" errors on the face as well as the "bullet hole".

    Looks like the only tragedy here is that some people actually paid money to hear this guy on stage.

    If this is the best he has, the only outfit that should book this performer is the police.

    Sorry...i guess where I'm used to spelling it like that cuz I'm a "ryde or dye" kinda female but like no other female so I spell it different.
