Found in 2022 roll.

I found this in a 2022 roll I got from the bank. Any ideas on what this would be? Thank you!

I'm thinking grease filled die strike nice find can you also show the reverse.

 

What’s the reverse look like? I’m gonna dime normal since u didn’t post it.
Thats a nice strike thru u got there

 

Thanks for the replies. Here is the reverse. Nothing different about it.

 

Nice grease filled die. Get it into a flip. And pinch those staples.

 

Very nice greaser!! And caught real early. You'll have a hard time finding a better one.

 

Definitely a greaser. It’s a keeper.

 

Is this worth grading? I have never done it and have found a few things but nothing this new.

 

Likely not. You can do some research on eBay Coins and see what folks are paying for these, but likely well below the cost of having it graded and slabbed. But flip worthy and maybe an airtite container. It's a neat coin to have in your collection, so it's really up to you.

 

Thank you. I've been doing this for a long time and haven't found anything good. I appreciate all the information given tonight!

 

My advice is this: in a box of cents, there will always be something in it. So take your time. It's harder when it's a box of solid, new cents, but then the hunt shifts a bit from a box of mixed dates. It really depends on what it is that you like to collect. So only those with very short lists are at risk of being disappointed. Otherwise, a box of mixed cents will produce a number of DDRs (very minor/minor) and usually a few attributed clashes. If it's a better box, some older cents, high grade specimens, WAMS, DDOs/DDRs, and more. It takes me a couple weeks to go through a box spending a couple hours a day searching the rolls.

 

Was this coin an ender from the roll?if so you could've sold the roll on ebay intact for around $100-$200 possibly.

 

Sounds good! I will keep on looking. You never know right!

 

Ha it was right in the middle of the roll of course.

 

Spark a nice little bidding war, I could see that, except that I have never bought anything I can't examine in hand.

 

I respectfully disagree. Notice that the sections where the design is not present ALL have tiny parallel "lines" that STOP where the design is fully present. IMHO the coin was damaged somehow.

 

Really?so what could've caused it.The coin was in a brand new roll so did it happen at the mint then?OK now I'm uncertain(@paddyman98).

 

It's a greaser. Note the full rim but loss of details. And the reverse features are all there. Grease was on the obverse and the details were lost. This rules out a soft hit. And those lines are common on greasers.

 

That’s a strange one but it does look like it’s either off the die or the die picked up something before it struck the planchet. It’s not grease. Grease doesn’t lay on the coin in uniform parallel lines like that.

 

The next time you find a coin, especially a cent, that is freshly into circulation and affected by grease, see if you notice the striations. I think that there is a good chance you will. I've seen this on cents and nickels mostly, but then again, those were the two denominations that I used to CRH.
