    I'll have to say that that cent, which I can't see the date on, was colorized by some company after the mint. I also cannot see the print DE, but the colorized light reflection off the lady bug is awsome!

    I believe that ladybug is for children.

    Do you mean the letters "DE" are stamped onto the coin?

    Just looked at your profile and saw the coin. If anything is stamped into a penny, it's always considered Post Mint Damage(PMD). Is the map a map of Delaware(DE)?

    Sounds like one of the state counterstamps. DE being Delaware. Does it look something like this?

    Welcome to CoinTalk! It looks like someone counterstamped your coin with an image of Delaware. I've seen pics of other 1976s like this. I would say worth face value unless in mint state.

    Only as a novelty item. Maybe a dollar or so.

    Not always! A strikethrough is considered an error rather than PMD.

    Clearly PMD, the object on the ladybug is a foreign object that is not part of the original ladybug. :D
