Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 2:38 pm Is the reverse a true 180° out? Meaning is Memorial centered w/ remaining image of bust? Appears to be a real error, not postmint, but I'm amazed at the greezer effect and all the extra partials on reverse plus Cud? on obv... Looks like it might have bounced around in/out of the die a few times? Edited by Crazyb0 02/06/2017 2:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 6:46 pm Id'e be skeptical - too many things don't add up to how that would have happened at the mint. Plus not really much evidence of a true rim that would be started on a real planchet. And I doubt wrong planchet as there were no other copper planchets during the Lincoln Cent era.

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 6:52 pm Its so one of a kind type error, I wouldn't pay premium for it, maybe $5.00-$8.00 max. That way don't lose shorts if a makey-uppy! Report this Post to the Staff
SjlundCoin Pillar of the Community United States 534 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 7:42 pm I don't believe die adjustment strikes usually have rims? I also don't think It's struck on a foreign planchet. Maybe coop can weigh in... Heres a an example of an off center die adjustment strike on a nickel. I can't find one a cent https://sullivannumismatics.com/pro...strike-au-58 Report this Post to the Staff
