I have a 1981 Lincoln Penny that is missing the E in "E Pluribus Unum". Just curious if anyone knew if it was worth anything?

Typically that's not really big- normally anything "absent" on the coin means grease filled in the spot on the die when it was made. Its common since they use grease in the press operation.

That's pretty much the only thing it could be from the description given.

They make great conversation pieces with the grandkids and uninitiated.
