Just had to share this story

At the end of each day I pull all of the lincoln cents out of the snack fund can at work. One day I looked in and on top (and obverse up) was this! CU-5C-1983P-02. I couldn't beleive it!

I have an agreement with my coworkers to purchase any coins from the can at face. Only catch is that one of my coworkers has dibs on LWC's and 95% copper LMC's (unless it is an error, then it's mine). I still search LMC's primarily but find myself looking at any coin I get my hands on now.

Heck, who needs to actually buy coins?

They must have struck a bunch of this one. They're pretty common as these things go.

I've heard people refer to this Cud as the vampire Cud or the Dolly Pardon Cud. Nice find

You just have to love an error that doesn't require a microscope to see.

Enjoy!
