Yup, it's called a BIE cent. It's a die crack between the letters.

 

iit worth more then a penny lol

 

yup, not sure how much more, and it depends on if you can find a buyer for it. Think a $1.00 at the most if you're lucky. They are kinda common.

It's the result of a well-placed die chip. I used to keep all I found. After about 20 of them, I just toss them back in the reject pile.

 

where do you guys get your pennies at

 

I've bought 1 pound of wheats so far, the rest have been from circulation

 

i bought a "unsearched roll of wheat pennies off ebay" and there was two canadian pennies 1973 and a 1996 penny so now i buy a brick of $25 from the bank and usually find 5 to 10 everytime but usually only in the 50 tho

 

Yes, there was one of those on ebay the other day. I came across it when checking out the errors but I didn't track it or anything so I have no idea how much it sold for. It may only be worth a dollar or two. Best to keep it, that way it may give you incentive to find something better. Well, that's how my brain works anyways.

 

Check the mintmark closely it looks like it may be a RPM (repunched mintmark)...
