LuiCazzie New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 11/26/2015 11:52 pm I was looking through my bags of wheat pennies I just inherited, and this one stood out in its date. I cant tell what the last number is. Can someone tell me what date it is and if its an error, what kind, and what it may be worth. tankies Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 11/27/2015 12:08 am I think it is a '47, but there is Cud on the lower inside of the '7'. The top crossbar of the '7' is faintly visible, but this part of the '7' is the result of a partly filled die, probably by grease. So two errors in the same tiny area. Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 11/27/2015 01:44 am Looks to me as if a tiny piece of metal has been chipped off the die, mainly on the inside vertical leg of the '7'. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/27/2015 4:28 pm I agree. It is a 1941 that was damaged by a vending machine. It is close to being parallel to the rim. Report this Post to the Staff
