<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coinhead63, post: 1364237, member: 28001&quot;]It is possible this was a result of what is called a capped die.&nbsp; However, with a capped die, the reverse side of the coin usually has a &quot;ghost&quot; impression made by the coin that got stuck on the reverse die.&nbsp; This usually leaves a &quot;negative&quot; impression of the obverse of the stuck coin.&nbsp; I&#039;m not aware of any other way that a coin press could malfunction allowing only one die to impress the planchet.&nbsp; Wheat cents were struck from 1909 to 1958.&nbsp; The term &quot;penny&quot; is slang as the US Mint has never produced a &quot;penny&quot; but the British Empire has.&nbsp; When you get a chance, please post pictures or scans as this will help you determine what has happened your coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
