    I found this 1972 Philadelphia penny with an interesting rim. Is this an error of sorts? It seems to begin around Lincoln's shoulder and extend counterclockwise. What say you?

    The pictures are the best I can do with what I have. I have a microscope camera on the way.

    Slightly misaligned die. Cool, but not worth any extra premium.

    Awesome... Thanks. Of course it would be wonderful to find an error on a coin that increased the value but the hunt is the fun in my opinion. And to have found my first anomaly, regardless of the severity is cool. Again, thanks!

    Otherwise known as a MAD. Quite common but not worth any extra $.
