Fin New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 10/16/2018 7:14 pm Does anybody know what caused this? I have never seen a penny like this before. I thought it might be the experimental 1964 Lincoln Cent. I'm sure it's not but I just want to know if anybody knows what caused this. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff
