I found this coin in a roll of pennies from my bank
What is it and how much is it worth?

to CCF!

The best place to ask this type of question would be in this thread here;

http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...p?FORUM_ID=5

Your going to need pictures of BOTH the OBV and REV of the coin and some close ups of the affected areas in question.

hope to see you post it there soon so I can take a look.

Again, to CCF!

It is a die clash but doesn't worth too much because it is a common error.
Rest in Peace

This is a neat find! The value is not that great but, how many people would know how this happened?
Not sure if you are a collector or just curious.
The cent is a keeper in my opinion.
@ Dar, to move the thread to the one you posted would be wrong.IMOH
This is a new member that could learn by posting their own questions.

I did not follow through and thought it was another persons thread.
Thread and forum are two different meanings.
I guess I jumped the gun.
