clerkinj New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 12/10/2015 8:27 pm Hi everyone! I have been CRH'ing for the last two months or so, and am learning quite a bit about cents. I have gone through about 35,000 coins and have found an IHP, quite a few LWC, some beautiful BU coins, and some coins that I have questions about. #1 - 1909 LWC - Does this Cud (die chip? still learning the lingo) make this coin any more valuable? See lower right quadrant of reverse. #2 2000 WAM? Please help me confirm this is a WAM. I believe it to be, but have never ID'ed one! #3 1957D LWC Cud? Die Chip? On the "9" of 1959. Does this make this coin any more valuable? #4 No date LWC - Is the PMD? Or is it possible that there are LWC without dates? I can't make any notice of a date that is worn off. However, it does look discolored in the area where the date would be. #5 1997 LMC - Upper right quadrant of obverse. Is this an error from the mint? Does it make this coin have any more value than 1 cent? It is slightly lower than the rest of the coin. I appreciate any and all help! I can't wait to share more of my finds, and learn more as I keep diving into this amazing hobby. Thanks, Jason Edited by clerkinj 12/10/2015 8:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff

tapapple65 Pillar of the Community United States 538 Posts	Posted 12/10/2015 9:28 pm Welcome to a really great coin forum. I will tell what I can about your coins. 1 appears to be a post mint gouge of some sort. 2 is a really nice WAM. 3 is a very common die chip on late 50's wheat cents due to over used dies. 4 is a mystery to me because if it is a strike through I have never seen one effect only the date.5 not sure about this one either. Could be a plating issue or maybe a strike through with debris. There will be others comment with allot more knowledge than me. If I may suggest, in the future do one coin per post.

cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 12/10/2015 9:46 pm First photo of the 1909 has damage on the reverse. The 2000 is a Wide AM. The 1957-D is a die chip, not real valuable but some peole collect them. The no date cent is most likely due to a Grease Filled Die error. I'm not sure what is going on with the 1997, possibly a struck through error. Edited by cwb 12/10/2015 9:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
