It is the perfect coin for filling any hole in you penny folder during the memorial range.

Quote:An error occurs when there is a problem with the making of the coin, not in the die itself. There are three different types of errors, planchet errors, die errors, and mint striking errors. Some examples are: Strike Doubling, laminations, struck through, off center, clipped planchets, capped dies, Grease Filled Dies, die adjustment strikes, and die clashes. Varieties are mistakes in the die and many coins get minted that are exactly the same. There are literally hundreds of Lincoln Cent varieties. Some examples of different types of varieties are: doubled dies and re-punched mint marks. Source: http://www.lincolncentsonline.com/error.htmlNo date Cuds are generally worth less than Cuds with dates, but they both sell well. I can't put a value on it, I guess it would depend on who sees it and how bad they want it.

Not exactly teo. It would have to be post 1981 and I think the engraver's initials would also help narrow the possible date down.
Thanks cwb

I'm not 100% sure. I sent BJ a note to take a look. Could very well be a different die state. Compare the reverse on the op coin and the one on COC. We'll see what BJ has to say, he's the expert!!

2oldJC, thanks for inquiring further for me. I wrote in my initial post that my reverse is a little different. It is close though, and the obverse appears identical to me, so that's why I identified that one as being the closest match I've found to what I have. I await BJ's opinion. Also, what did you mean by 'op coin?'

Dbrablec, so under the definition cwb provided, a double die is a variety. In the definition you provide, it is an error. Oy ve.

Doubled dies, RPMs, Over mint marks, Over dates are die varieties. Wide/close AM's are year varieties. (1998-2000 Business strikes and Proof year varieties) Cuds are events that happen to some dies. (not a variety but listed)

I believe this coin has Lincoln Memorial Reverse Design #5, making it from 1986-1988. Can anyone confirm? Thanks.

OP is short for original poster. In online discussion forums, OP is short for original poster -- the person who started a discussion thread. Within the forum thread others may direct comments specifically to the original poster using the OP abbreviation.

2old jc, I had since realized that 'OP' referred to the person who posted the topic, I just didn't state that I realized. That proved beneficial however because I didn't gather what 'OP' actually stood for and now I know. Thank you for clarifying, and thank you jbuck. I'm just discovering the different LMC reverse designs, so I'd appreciate feedback confirming my thought that this is LMRD #5 which would make it a 1986-1988 cent. Thank you!

While it is close to CU-1c-ND-24, an overlay shows it to be not the same. So, it is a new one. Please contact me through cuds-on-coins.com site and we can discuss getting it on site.
Nice find.

Hi BJ, it would be cool to have one of my coins listed on your site. I understand this isn't of utmost priority but I'm trying this avenue of communication just in case you missed my email. Thank you!
