I recently been goin over some of my coins i have found during my searches....and i stumbled upon this 2009 Lincoln penny....i examined this coin for hrs...the dats to my naked eye says "12009" its suppose b a 2009 Lincoln penny...anyone know wat may b goin on here with this coin
Paredolia. Some Stain or mark makes it look that way. Unless someone went 10,000 years into the future and picked one up then
Ok im carpentry smart...if i know stain....it wont put a wat looks like a perfect "1" in front of the 2 in the date...now quote me if im wrong...but i think there is something else is goin on possibly besides wat yu stated...which im soaking in all knowledge givin...
There is no reason at all for the US Mint to put an extra digit on the date. Since it's a Copper Plated Zinc Cent then only way that could be something that looks like a number 1 would be a minor plating issue called a linear plating bubble which to me does not look like it could be
I don't understand your comment about stains and numbers, thus (1) what is the black area on the coin ? and why is it black ? (2) what number "1". I don't see a number "1" (3) your images are out of focus and difficult to see any detail.
oh. Of course any "line" can be confused with a number 1, unless you know it's not a number one. Here is an example of a 1 from 2019 Of course though here's an example of a kinda "1" to the right of the 1991
