<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Thomas R., post: 24723656, member: 149641&quot;]First and foremost, I&#039;ve seen a lot of posts saying that it looks like a squeeze job lol which I could understand people doing that.</p><p>But this particular penny is not pressed perfectly on both sides and when I say that I mean, normally when a penny is pressed it is aligned on both sides, if you&#039;re looking at Lincoln&#039;s head directly in front of you perfectly aligned up and down, you should be able to flip the penny forward and over and the back side will be equally aligned with the front.</p><p>I double check this with other pennies.</p><p>This particular dye error is definitely not a press job because it would have had to come from the mint in this condition way back whenever.</p><p>If you&#039;re looking at the penny on a counter completely &quot;squared&quot; then</p><p>&nbsp;when I flip it over equally the back should be &quot;squared&quot; alignment wise.</p><p>I&#039;m not sure if I&#039;m explaining this correctly but they both should be centered with each other front and back.</p><p>If I flip this particular penny, the front is misaligned with the back which kind of makes it have to come from the mint and that condition. Right?</p><p>I&#039;m not an experienced coin collector however I did compare this to other pennies and found that this one is not aligned with the front as it should be.</p><p>And the imprint of &quot;Lincoln&#039;s Memorial&quot; it&#039;s running across Lincoln&#039;s face almost vertically and I can see the words e pluribus unum kind of following suit with the print of Lincoln&#039;s memorial going across vertically.</p><p>So my question is this, what is this coin worth? I&#039;m almost sure it is copper and zinc in composition. So it&#039;s not one of the rarer 1983 solid copper pennies.</p><p>My name is Thomas <span style="color: #ff0000"> - Edited -</span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
