Matt_MacGyver New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted Today 1H 32M ago Hello. It's been a while since I posted here, and I'm hoping you'll be able to help me. Look closely at this penny. Let me know if you think it's worth my sending off to get it graded. At first I thought it was one of those damages where coins are pressed together in a vise, and get imprinted from the other coins. But this one is different. Some of the doubling and tripling are literally in layers. I'm hoping this hold some value. Thanks in advance for any information you can share.

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 7018 Posts	Posted Today 1H 8M ago Wow, that is gnarly! I wonder if it's a multiple strike coin with a flip over strike. Although given how the coin faces are severely misaligned, it seems like the coin should be out of round. Looking forward to what the error pros say about this one. Report this Post to the Staff

The rims are crushed with design impressions and there are multiple reverse designs on obverse and reverse. "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21991 Posts	Posted Today 11M ago Not an error, it is damage. If it was a multistrike, you would have the obverse showing on the reverse. This shows the reverse extra strike showing on both sides. As CoinHi stated, someone used a soft die to try and create an error coin. Keep as a novelty. Report this Post to the Staff
