Does the die polishing add any value to the coin?

No, unless it's severe causing the device (Letters or other design detail) to be completely polished off, remove the whole detail on the coin.

Actually on your coin the die polishing would take away from the quality of the coin.

Here's a sale on ebay for you.


Don't waste your money getting a scale for this Wheat cent - it is just a common coin that was struck from an over polished die - save your money for something you really want and will use more than once!

Yeah that makes sense Mark because his ear is almost worn off and it doesn't look very nice. I'll probably keep it just as a good example of die polishing

I'm not going to go out of my way to buy a scale for this cent but I am going to keep my eye out for one anyway because I should have one. Thanks for the advice everyone !

If the weight is normal, then it is a Struck Through Grease strike issue.

Then it may have been removed from the coin. PSD if that is the case. (My bet it is that it is a Struck Through Grease error.

Do Struck Through Grease coins have extra value? What's PSD?

Sorry Newbie234 when I first posted the coin I thought it was PMD that's why I wrote it in the title. Should I change it?

Edit: I will make sure to note the denomination in the title next time unfortunately I can't edit this topic because it's over a day old

Buckwill311. You're good. I'm not a penny or cent collector. Even though I sometimes come across them. My main stay is nickels. So I look for titles with those coins. I would greatly appreciate the denomination of each coin in the title. Thanks and have a great day!
