    1978 D lincoln Cent, it starts at the bow tie and proceeds over the date and loops back thru his nose , follows thru his cheek and curves up at his ear and up towards the top of his head and stops at the D in god. Any value on something like this.

    Some yes - how much is anybody's guess. It would depend on who wanted to buy it and how bad they wanted it. They do make neat errors though.

    Understood

    I love this error hobby, I'm slowly learning whats worth something and whats not. I don't think anybody learns this hobby fast. Myself I keep anything thats worth a buck or more or has possible vaule in the future. My goal is to research and learn while collecting as much as I can over the next 15 years, next year I should be ready to start getting the good ones graded authenticated and slabbed. In 15 years I will sell my collection and buy myself a bunch of fun.

    Here is another struck through error, again a string, on a coin you don't see every day. It is a 1749 2 reale struck in Mexico city. Thought you might enjoy it ;)

    Is the string still in it? Interesting, at the bottom it almost looks like gouge marks but at the top you can see if it were a gouge it would have not missed the Q.
