[QUOTE="Chip Kirkpatrick, post: 3515303, member: 101265"]A relaxing evening of perusing a handful of wheat pennies and 2 caught my eye. Decided to expand my limited knowledge by asking what may have caused these curiosities ? The first is a 1942. On the reverse I saw what appears to be an “arch” bisecting the word “ONE” as well as the 2 sheathes of wheat. Is this an impression from being crunched by another coin? The second is a 1956 D. While it has a strong red coloring it also has a “shadow” running along the rim and then appearing to disappear up Lincoln’s nostril. Let me guess. Environmental damage?[ATTACH=full]933134[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]933135[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]933136[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]933137[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]933138[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]933139[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
