I purchased this coin and wanted to know what you guys and girls thought about it. Was it worth 5 bucks?

------
You are bidding on a Nice example of a CAPPED Die ERROR on a 1979 Lincoln Cent. Coin also has a Railroad Rail rim from not being set in the dollar with the Hammer Die Strike.

Good-Buy?

if it was a real capped error, its worth lots of money, that appears to be a post mint damaged coin so worth a penny.....

Education is a powerful tool. With it your collection will be awesome. Without it your collection will be less than stellar and not worth what you paid for it.

And you are on the right track. There are so many resources online and off. It is a lot easier to learn than it was when I first started. I still learn something new all the time.
