batboy Pillar of the Community United States 650 Posts	Posted 01/16/2016 4:18 pm The technical name is PMD. The average person would say it's a scratch. There's another scratch running across the "1" of the date too. Report this Post to the Staff
BadToTheBone Pillar of the Community United States 1795 Posts	Posted 01/16/2016 4:22 pm Just my opinion but I'm not seeing anything except a rough looking cent with a doubling of the 9. As far as value I wouldn't worry about going to the bank. Still a keeper because of the doubling for its interest. Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 01/16/2016 4:48 pm Actually it does look like there is a 'dropped' nine to right and down. You can see the top of the dropped nine at the center of the true 9, too. Someone with more experience would need to give you a value, but I very much doubt if it carries any real price worth messing with. Report this Post to the Staff

Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3331 Posts	Posted 01/18/2016 12:41 pm to CCF and thanks for the photo. I am very curious about the "extra" 9 if that is what it actually is. Is that feature raised? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/18/2016 2:57 pm I agree with Pete. Depending on how much it is raised/lowered. It does look interesting, but would need to better images as a lower angle to see if it is not a stain. (a stain would be level with the field) Also a few more images of the obverse would be nice.
