I just got an email from the Mint... Mark Your Calendar - the 2026 Omega Penny Auction is Coming. They do not know their customers. One look at my purchase history will tell them I am not in the market.  |

The numismatic element is beside the point.

Lot 232 has reached $250K. . .  FWIW: Sets with 2 MS66's + an MS69 gold are creeping up to the $20K range. Set #212 has an MS67 2025-D. . .current bid is $42K P.T. Barnum is laughing from his grave. . . " Even a clock that's stopped is right twice a day. "

That's insanity. I don't know if the fingerprints contribute to the 64 grade but they certaily can't help.

Two questions:
What is going on in the field to the left of the omega?
Is this a special "micro D" version of the cent? I can hardly see the mint mark.

Even though it may look like one, that's not a D. That coin was struck in Philadelphia. That's likely Brandon Beach's fingerprint.
