    I have a 2002 sent and on the back that I circled there is 4th from liberty and Unum you can see why would they be at the bottom on the back?

    What I'm asking is why I would see that was it punched or is it because it was by other coins.

    You're going to need a super clear closeup if you want people to know what they're talking about. Right now too blurry to see.

  7. its an interesting find. if it were pressed in by another coin it would be backwards but i can see the t then y in correct order, so cool, i wish i had more info but a quick search and found nothing more. hopefully one of the experts on here can help but either way cool find

    Can you rephrase your question? It looks like autocorrect might have messed up a couple of your words. All I'm seeing is likely a fingerprint in that circle. Better photos would certainly help. Better lighting will make the photos easier.

    What I'm seeing appears to be a plating issue you have circled. This was the first year for copper plated zinc cents and they were fraught with plating problems. Gas gets between the plating and zinc and starts to push up and out. On yours it appears like extra Memorial columns but it is not. Not an error, just poorly made and time has also taken it's toll on yours.
