1995 cent / missing letters / found today

hi all,

I found this 1995 Lincoln cent today. It is missing the letters " IB" in the word "LIBERTY". There are no signs of damage anywhere on the coin, and absolutley no sign of those missing letters! There is also some slight doubling in
'IN GOD WE TRUST" could just be ejection doubling though, not really sure and it's hard to tell from my pic.

Any comments or insight on this cent would be great!

Thanks
-Tom

filled die?

 

That would be my guess, but I'm not good at identifying errors.

 

Sounds like a grease filled die.

yea, that's what i figured, thought it was neat
, absolutley no trace of the missing letters

 

greased die.
Sell it on eBay-- could be worth millions.
Or $1.00 if the buyer knows what they are doing.

 

Frank,
Truth is, I did buy this coin from ebay, for 500,000. So are you saying i got a good deal? They threw in free shipping as well. ( ;
