Nova New Member Canada 31 Posts	Posted 04/02/2011 10:04 pm Hey I was doing some coin roll hunting and came across a extra spine on a 1964 penny. I'm not sure what it is but seems I have luck finding coins with extra spines. Is this a common coin? [/URL] Edited by Nova 04/02/2011 10:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff

cownick Pillar of the Community Canada 677 Posts	Posted 04/04/2011 10:21 pm Hi, to me it looks like a die chip after once a die clash. The second 1964 extra bud looks similar to the 1965 extra bud do to hub doubling. Try a look at Ken Potter *Please do not post e-mail addresses in threadsAvoids spamming** If I look hard enough I have an extra stem variety some place. Report this Post to the Staff

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10464 Posts	Posted 04/13/2011 12:57 am To answer your original question, it is not overly common. The location of the 'spine' can vary slightly as well. Mint state examples usually sell at a decent price, I paid a heavy premium for one in MS-65, but then I am a variety guy and supply/demand prices usually go out the window when I see something I want! The only TPG firm that recognizes and comments on this variety is CCCS.
