Jay30777 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 03:33 am I Was coin roll hunting a bank box of pennies and found this error when magnifying. I checked this at every angle and against other 1985 D pennies. This is original and I can't find any other example of it online. I think I found a unique coin here. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Bedrock of the Community United States 14443 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 04:39 am @jay, could be a small die chip on the top of the letter T (and if so then there should be a bunch of them out there) or else it might be a tiny hole in the copper plating letting a small area of the underlying zinc core start to deteriorate (in which case you might have the only one, but it isn't an error).

John1 Bedrock of the Community United States 31082 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 05:12 am Looks like a "zinc zit" to me,a plating issue. John1 ( I'm no pro, it's just my humble opinion ) Searched 5+ Million Cents Since 1971 Report this Post to the Staff

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 4629 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 09:21 am I'd say it is a Zinc bubble. Report this Post to the Staff
Jay30777 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 09:31 am You guys are great thank you so much for the replies. I've been collecting for years but I do not have the experience and identifying or labeling the types of abnormalities I find on coins. Thank you again. Report this Post to the Staff
