2foxy Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 01:08 am I found this 1984 penny that has a significant gap inbetween B and E, is this a rare error? Thank you, your assistance is appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10533 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 02:30 am Looks to be the start of a BI coin, either that, or a I that's been removed somehow.. ça va bien aller Report this Post to the Staff
2foxy Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 03:47 am I've been scouring the internet for a similar error but I havent been able to find one. The darkening between the B and E matches other dark spots on the coin, it doesn't appear to be post strike damage. I know it might be hard to tell from the photo. Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 3899 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 06:17 am There will be other coins with this same spacing. All Lincoln cents from 1984 will look like this since the working hubs were made from the master dies. If you're not familiar with the process, here's a link to how dies are made. (The link will explain it much better than I can.) http://doubleddie.com/58201.html Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 76361 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 08:52 am Normal coin. The color contrast is creating an optical illusion. to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog 12/21/2022 08:53 am Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 11229 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 08:55 am I agree with the frog. Report this Post to the Staff
oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 1320 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 11:02 am The frog jumps in the right direction, I agree with him. Also, I think the marks that are blueish is the beginning of zinc rot. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Bedrock of the Community United States 15524 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 6:27 pm The gap is normal, it looks like the plating is missing there exposing the zinc core. Collecting since 1972.
