I am going crazy please help me. Report this Post to the Staff

TheGoodGuys Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 06/18/2015 5:17 pm All of this is post mint damage, looks to me like the penny was held on a belt grinder or something which created the lines. Why would a 1980 Penny be struck with a 2015 quarter planchet anyway? Report this Post to the Staff

The interesting part is that the obverse seems to show a nice woodie pattern that's appropriate for that era. The lighting for the reverse shot may have obscured the a patterns on the reverse. In better lighting are there wood grain patterns on the reverse ? Report this Post to the Staff
