runlike New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 04/04/2014 12:54 pm I saw this last night and thought the 5 on the date looked funky. Damage? And I've found a couple of these with soft lettering in the same spots. Is there such a thing as a "soft stamp" or "light lettering" error? Or perhaps it just happens to wear in the same spot? Thanks in advance!! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/04/2014 2:23 pm The damage is parallel from the rim, so I'm thinking a vending machine, coin counter or coin wrapper damaged it. Nothing really interesting for a premium on your coin. Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15623 Posts	Posted 04/04/2014 7:36 pm The 1975 cent is damaged ... and the other two are the result of a Grease Filled Die strike ... common and no particular numismatic premium.
