Not illigal unless you sell it as a 1914 D. Altered date.

Easy way to check: is there a VDB in Lincoln's shoulder?

Anyway, this is an altered coin.

Thanks everyone, the lesson for the day, if it's too good to be true, it probably isn't true!!

The mint mark position matches up with a 1944-D cent.
Now you know, it is an altered 1944-D Lincoln Cent.

If you were a coin date alterer and botched altering a date into a 1914D, what would you do with the botched attempt (besides put it on ebay)?
Rest in Peace

They very obviously mutilated a 24 into a 14.

I don't think they would use a semi-key 24-d to make it in a 14-d. The 44-d makes more sense.

Worthless honestly, even you'll get crap for spending it.

I'd just take a sander and sand it down.

Or throw it into a lake.

That's what I'm doing with my 1944 S altered to a 1914 S.

Agree with srs77, it is indeed the worst I've ever seen.
