<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LincolnPennyMystery, post: 2892931, member: 90785&quot;]This is my first time posting here and trying to reach out for help on coin identification, so please bare with me.. So, I came across this penny years ago. It is nearly mint, year 1997, and it is just like any other coin but there is a number 5 printed at the top left hand side of the coin. My thing is, how did only a number 5 get there and not another whole date, and what would this be labeled as? I have seen misprints before, but not like that, same with date print being doubled or even some numbers missing in the dates.. but a perfect date print and then a number 5 WAY over there is crazy... Right now I can not find my coin, but I know I still have it. I am, for now using a picture of a penny coin and drawing the 5 where it is located so you get an idea of its placement. I don&#039;t know the value of this coin, I have never seen anything like it before. Tell me what you think, I&#039;ll continue to look for my coin. This coin&#039;s unknown value has both bothered me and made me curious for years...</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]695866[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
