Dollface510 New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 4:35 pm One obvious error is the "blob" on the "b" in liberty. But, I feel like there are a few errors, I'm just not sure if they are post mint errors. I am new to this, as a hobby let me know if more pictures are needed Report this Post to the Staff

Rothery Pillar of the Community 2145 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 4:40 pm The bottom of the B being filled in is caused by a broken post on the die, very common on 1957 & 58 Lincoln cents. I don't really see any other errors. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 4:42 pm Can you be more specific about what you think are the other errors? to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog 01/03/2021 4:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19242 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 4:42 pm The B in Liberty appears to be impacted by a die chip--in this case also known as a broken post. A piece of the die had broken off, leaving a void to be filled by metal when the coin was struck. A photo of the reverse would help us develop a more complete sense for what's going on with the coin.

Dollface510 New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 6:03 pm There seems to be an indentation near the date that maybe affects the 5 and the 7. Or is that not right? Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 6:07 pm A close-up of that area would help. Report this Post to the Staff

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 9:38 pm to the CCF! This coin is showing classic die clash at the date and at Lincoln's neck. I can see the C and N of CENT and the E of ONE on the obverse where it was transferred when the dies struck each other. It may also account for some of the distortion around the 57 in the date. Here's an overlay so you can see what areas are clashed. Click the photo for a larger image. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Edited by Yokozuna 01/03/2021 9:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff
