Since it's your first you should keep it. I don't think it's considered a "prisoner" cent unless the bars are on both sides of Lincolns bust. They are kinda common on the 1970's but still a nice find especially in Canada. John1
Keeper, and nice find of Canada! I love finding die clashes, but I'm sad to say the only die clash I've found was on a 1942 canadian cent, and it was small at that [v]
