[QUOTE="AmishJedi, post: 6166189, member: 114568"]Found this odd cent in my local Walmart Coinstar...I've never found/collected these types of Lincolns, so not sure about: [LIST] [*]these are considered true mint errors, yes? [*]how to properly calculate the % of off-center? [*]any value above face/collectible? [*]if gradable, would the TPG evaluate the struck coin fields/devices, the "blank" surface or both as far as determining MS/UNC? [/LIST] The cent is actually (in hand) quite nice - minus "chatter" on the non-struck portion of the planchet (I sure hope my terminology is correct), still pretty "shiny". Very interesting to find - going in a flip for now. [ATTACH=full]1245497[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1245499[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1245500[/ATTACH] p.s. I am tagging [USER=44615]@paddyman98[/USER] - this seems like something right up his alley. ;-) Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]
