    Hey everyone,
    I was Looping trough my collection of Penny's again and found this Pieve from 1972.
    On the back I mean a
    double cube in United States of America and
    below by One Cent.
    Endeider I need new
    Glasses, or I'm right
    with my assumption.
    (wishful thinking)
    Best regards,I'm looking forward to your answers

    It's a Lincoln Penny

    Penny - Singular
    Pennies - Plural
    Not penny's

    What's a double cube?

    That correct numismatic terminology would be Doubled Die

    You have a slight Misaligned Die Strike.
    Nothing else.

    Have a great day :angelic:

    Your eyes aren’t too bad but...
    What you see is strike doubling, a slippage of the dies. Flat and shelf like.
    No true reverse, DDR, Lincolns for 1972 Philadelphia are listed on Wexler or Variety Vista.
    The Obverse 1972 has about 25 different DDOs listed. They had problems with the hubbing process that year, but I don’t see that on yours. Peace
    PS I have several that show just what you’re seeing. Loose fitting dies is the cause.
