Zander2014 Valued Member United States 140 Posts	Posted 09/16/2021 04:32 am Good morning! Can someone give me input / information about this coin. I think I took good enough pictures. All the letters on both sides, the date all look to have a black number under original. And his eyes look missing. Just a black hole. Thanks and have a great day Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21614 Posts	Posted 09/16/2021 07:14 am Not sure what you are seeing but all I see is a regular 1968 cent. I think you may be looking too hard for something that is not there. I don't know if you have taken time to learn the minting process and what an error actually is, but if you have, then you what know that what you have described is not possible.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/16/2021 07:47 am From the glare I'm guessing that is Machine Doubling on those areas. New collectors see this and try to get lots of light on this to show it, but all we see is glare. Edited by coop 09/16/2021 08:23 am Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 09/16/2021 4:03 pm The "black" areas you describe are just shadows. Are your lighting sources from extreme angles? Normal cent. I agree, you are looking hard for things that just aren't there. Report this Post to the Staff
