xcelr8r New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 04/24/2024 10:20 pm I am trying to learn to tell the difference between strike errors and post error. I am not really sure how you can tell this is a post error. I will study it closer to try to understand. Thank you for your reply. Report this Post to the Staff

xcelr8r New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 04/24/2024 10:30 pm This is an example of a 1956 that I am sure it is a post strike error. This example I think is very obvious. Report this Post to the Staff
xcelr8r New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 04/24/2024 10:42 pm Thank you for the link. It appears that post errors usually happen on the last number of the date in these pennies. I am learning! Thank you!! Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74662 Posts	Posted 04/24/2024 10:54 pm It's not an error, it's Post Mint Damage ( PMD). Mechanical damage caused this. I agree with ijn1944. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

xcelr8r New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 04/25/2024 11:13 pm I came across this 1984 penny while going thru all of the pennies my father had. I know this is probably PMD. I am curious as to how this PMD is made? I can't imagine a Gumball Machine doing this. I also weighed it, and it weighs 2.51 which is a little off from the 2.5. Could this be a counterfeit attempt at making a mint error coin? Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6548 Posts	Posted 04/25/2024 11:20 pm That last 1984 cent looks like it might be a legitimate off center strike. Report this Post to the Staff
xcelr8r New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 04/25/2024 11:31 pm So, it is a real mint error? I am amazed that I might have actually found one! Thank you for your reply! Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/26/2024 03:40 am One coin per thread please. The 1984 is an off center strike. Check ebay sold values for an idea on value. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
