Coffeeandcoins New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 02/22/2016 2:10 pm I found this penny and wondered if it's an error. I have a five gallon water container full of coins .Just going through them (months now still half left) but I found this cent and wonder if it's an error.

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 02/22/2016 2:22 pm Not an error coin. Your cent got smashed against another cent -- maybe in a vise. The clue here is that the numbers and letters are indented mirror images of what they should be. Never hurts to ask, though. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/22/2016 3:55 pm Post Strike Damage ( PSD) Someone tried to alter your coin to make it look like an error. Couldn't do it. So what does he do with it, put it back into circulation. Edited by coop 02/23/2016 12:09 am Report this Post to the Staff
