I'm attaching pictures for two pennies, one is mistruck penny, no date or mint mark on it, is it worth anything? The other is another penny (1958) the reverse is rotated, see for yourselves. Thank you for your opinions in advance.
Hello, your 1958-D with rotated reverse has only minimal value. The zinc cent is an Off Center Strike, trends 40-80%= $9.50, 80+% = $8.50. Don't expect to get this price though. 2-5 dollars would be more reasonable...
Welcome Sandro. The 1958-D looks to be BU and might be worth a $1.00 or more. The rotation appears to be about 15 - 20 degress which is not considered unnoteworthy. But it is definetely a fine cent for or folder or album. I can't comment on the mistrike but you don't come across them very rare but not to valuable. Maybe $5 . But again I would keep it. You might want to dip it in some acetone to prevent anymore corrosion or verdigris from ruining it.And keep it in a 2 X 2 (quarter size) with plenty of staples to try and keep the air out.
Thank you Abe and Zekeguzz, Thank you very much for your comments. This gives me an idea of what I have and what is worth.
Sandro- Acetone in a can by itself. You're not supposed to use nail polish remover b/c it contains perfume and toxins which can ruin coins.
