I know alot about stamps because I sold my dad's postage stamp collection. Now it's on to his coins! I found this in a box with other error coins. Is this an indent error? It's a 1917 penny. I had a hard time taking good pics because of bad lighting through my window today. Any info will be appreciated! Thanks!   |

My dad had written information on so many of the other errors so I had a feeling since he didn't write anything for this one that is was probably damage. Thanks for the quick reply!

Ok Cascade... I guess I need to rephrase that?! LOL!! What I meant to say was he had written information FOR each error coin on paper.... Of course not on the coins themselves! Edited by defly2

cwb: I'm not selling his coins yet. I was a stamp collector many years ago and gave myself a "refresher" course before I started putting them up for sale. I also collected coins many years ago. I will do alot of studying before I start selling his coins. I didn't get into the coin collecting as much as I did stamps.

Looks like someone tried to cut it into and didn't have enough strength to finish the job.
