[QUOTE="venusrage, post: 75931, member: 4334"]Okay, I have this really weird penny and I havent been able to find a comparison anywhere online. :confused: This is a 197? D Lincoln memorial penny. (71,73,79? last digit is printed on the edge and is hard to read. The coin is smaller and thicker than the normal lincoln but not much smaller. The edge is just above Lincolns head and it touches the two bottom corners of the memorial. (typically there is a space there). The edge overlaps the face and back and the edge is as thick as a nickel. "In God we trust" is not visible on the coin at all because of the size. "E pluibus unium" is not legible, however it looks like it might have been printed on the coin ...very subtle indication of it. The "L" on "liberty" is almost printed on the ridge of the coin. "United States of America" is mostly visible but some is mostly printed on the rim of the coin. (and part of united looks to be under the rim) "one cent" is printed slightly on the rim too. I'm not sure what to think about this....what kind of error would this be called? What is the value range?? Any help would be great. [email]moonstruck_archangel@yahoo.com[/email] Thanks!! -Ve[/QUOTE]
