Hi,
Pretty embarrassing. I'm guessing the message was for my penny. I'm sorry. This is the first coin post I have ever made. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for the post though...I was wondering why there were no replies.

Welcome to Coin Community, ecadriel. This Cent, unfortunately, has led a very hard life since it was released from the Mint. It's a perfect example of "things which cannot possibly happen at the Mint," which knowledge will be the first steps in your learning process. First, learn how a coin is struck, and the knowledge will immediately make you better-qualified with true errors. We'll help.  |

Keep it for educational purposes and to keep the next guy from having to ask the same question or worse yet selling it to a newbe.

Looks like that got beat up with a hammer. I've done it before.

Actually, maybe not a hammer. Maybe road kill.

 We all learn at different paces, and learning is a key essential to numismatics. I cannot stress that enough. Don't expect fast replies necessarily on your posts. The view count may increase quickly in 10 minutes, but that won't mean that your coin will have a reply that soon. Not to mention the people who are online are always on at different times. I come on about 3-4 times a day and just check in and see if I missed anything. |
