also found this pennie. The front is smooth and you can barley see the outline of lincoln. I'm not sure if its a error or just from being in circulation. I tryed to get the best picture I could. Any Ideas?


Show us a photo of the reverse ... it might be a mint error known as struck through a capped die ... or maybe PMD.

Better photos ... and a reverse shot .. will help us to help you.

I just took a few more pictures. The only camera I have is my cell phone which is 8mp. I cant get to close because it gets blurry. If you have any ideas how to get a better picture please let me know.

Ok got a few more pictures. stuck it on my scanner and scanned it to the computer. I think its a little clearer.

Amida17: what is IMO? So if this is a struck through capped die how much would it be worth?

IMO= In My Opinion. $25-$50 I think. But like all errors they are only worth what someone will pay....

I found a 2000 WAM. http://copperpennysorter.com/ is the website of the company I was looking into for the sorter. My uncirculated rolls usually sell for $1.25-$1.75 a roll. I know just from watching items the best weight to sell the pre 82 pennies is in 10-20lb amounts as people tend to afford this more then bigger or smaller amounts. A 25lb bag reentry sold for $55 including shipping. And a roll of wheat is usually $3-$5. Once you have a lot of feedback and get to know your products for being good they prices go sky high, I have seen a price from a roll go from$10 a roll to $110 a roll just from repeat customers and feedback.

Everybody has to learn and at least it wasn't a really expensive lesson. I prefer a deep chocolate patina on my Indians.
