Hope everyone had a good Christmas and a fun New Year's Eve... I'm looking forward to jumping in to my penny roll searching again now... it's like opening a box of Cracker Jack... a prize in every box!  |

Actually, there's multiple prizes in every box, which is the problem. LOL I have FAR too many rolls of stuff these days and I've found myself getting pickier and pickier.

I get sad everytime I think about hundreds of boxes I did without know there was some nice DDO beside the 001 ! Maybe I passed by one and didnt notice ... |

Yea, always check the 1972's VERY close so you don't miss the minor DDO's. Lincoln Cent Lover!VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/

1972 DDO Die#4 is probably the least obvious of the DD in 1972, BUT it is worth the most if your selling. I sure hope I didn't let that one pass by...  Even though #4 is worth more than #1, Id rather find #1 because it is such an extreme looking DD.  Edited by willy13

1909 VBD in EF 40, I was shocked when I found one in that good condition in a bank roll.

Went through $10 in brinks rolls, came away 3 wheaties from the fifties and this guy... Obverse has several "pin" marks across the LIBERTY, a deep pin mark on Lincoln's jaw, and more pin marks on the S and T of TRUST.  Reverse has the missing piece...don't know the official term for it. I can see under magnification the faint lettering of the missing A.  |

Jdot - That is simple PMD (Post Mint Damage) on your 95D. Get used to coins that look like that, you're going to find a lot of them. Lincoln Cent Lover!VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/

BadThad, is there a good rule of thumb to tell difference between post mint and something that occurred at the mint?
