very weak D on penny

Goin through rolls last night and found this. Look how weak the D is on it. Is this something significant? or will I get the "nice find, keep looking" message, LOL.

Nice find, keep looking :} :} :}

But seriously, this is the last year for the hand punched mintmark on the lincoln cent. This was just not struck as strongly as other dies were. I don't believe this would give the coin any premium. The only coin that I know of that Weak D means anything on is the 1922 weak/no D varieties and then it is not considered a weak D unless it is barely readable.

Looks like a filled die. Fairly Common.

 

Nice find! :thumb:

I'll have to agree with Ziggy, it's not anything special, but it's a nice find to keep.
