John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/30/2012 04:35 am to CCF. It is not an error it is called Die Deterioration (worn die) and has no added value,sorry. Stick around and have fun learning. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

papatony Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 06/30/2012 10:38 am The pic is a bit blurry, but could it possibly be a Repunched Mint Mark, John1 ? Just curious for my own knowledge.Or is it the dreaded zinc bubble? Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 07/01/2012 09:53 am Even if it were a repunched mintmark the effect of the Die Deterioration would render the coin non-collectible as a repunched mintmark. Those who collect them want a good example of the doubling on the mintmark, not a coin that is otherwise troubled. If this were the best, scarcest repunched mintmark for the year I would not pay a premium to acquire it for that reason. These are the things that should be considered when offering advice about coins - is it worth messing with? Do you REALLY want to collect a bent parking lot coin just because it happens to be a doubled die? Not very many people would. Those who collect doubling want to collect it for the doubling, and want to see the doubling not damaged or inhibited by other problematic issues on the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/29/2017 07:03 am to CCF Jwelch. You should start your own topic and not hijack someone else's. Your coin suffers from zinc rot,not an error. Sorry. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Jwelch New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 06/29/2017 07:18 am If you zoom in on penny I'm talking about the extra number 8 on it next to mint mark Report this Post to the Staff
