jackson12345 Valued Member Canada 72 Posts	Posted 04/15/2023 12:36 am Discovered in my collection this worn 1943 steel penny. Looking closely it appears as if the 3 in the date never was there, and in the spot for the mint mark lies a square block. Anyone know if this would be a mint error, post mint damage, or any other similar examples? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by jackson12345 04/15/2023 06:57 am Report this Post to the Staff
