<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HarryHollis, post: 71366, member: 4196&quot;]I have held on to this coin since I found it in a roll in the 70&#039;s and kept it for its oddity. Now, I would hope someone could help me with the clarity of what this coin is.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin is a 1977 weak strike Lincoln Cent. On the front of the coin, IN GOD WE TRU&nbsp; &quot; the date is 19--. There is a small blob or faint 77 that can be made out with standard numismatic magnifying lens but is hard on the naked eye. On the reverse, the writing above the Lincoln Memorial is not there. Gone. THe Lincoln Memorial is very weak, no detail, very faint and ONE CEN</p><p>on it.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have spent an hour trying to take a pic but the flash isnt cooperating and its approaching midnight. Given the info, does anybody have any info on a production run of these, or is this a fluke or broken die coin, or just a lucky find, etc?&nbsp; Any help or discussion on this coin I would be most interested.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank You </p><p>Harry Hollis</p><p>Bennettsville SC[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
