 I checked three sources (coppercoins, Variety Vista and Wexler's die varieties) but nothing has been listed for this year/mint mark so far as varieties. Philly mint yes, but Denver no. On your coin, I see coin wrapper damage on the obverse of your coin. No varieties. Just damage.

Thanks Coop! So if it isn't listed on one of those websites it's not an error? Good to know!

 to the forum! Quote: Thanks Coop! So if it isn't listed on one of those websites it's not an error? Good to know! That's not what Coop was saying at all! There are many, many unlisted errors and varieties waiting to be discovered. The photos you posted don't show anything out of the ordinary, just some damage and maybe a Zinc bubble or two. The large arch mark from LIBERTY to IN is the wrapper damage Coop was referring to. It sometimes happens when coins are wrapped, the end coin will get scratched by the machine as it crimps the end of the roll shut. Keep looking, they are out there!

 KatieH13 As a past Dealer, I used to give free coins to new collectors.. I have a number of 1950's "BIE" & die chip Varieties Lincoln Cents that I removed from Original Bank Wrapped Rolls about 15 years ago, and would like to give out to new collectors.. The only cost is a Self Addressed Stamp Envelope sent to me.. If the Moderators here say it's Okay, & your account accepts email requests, I will contact you.. In another CCF thread, I seen where the Forum Dad mentioned he was going on vacation, and since I can no longer do show's, if I can get a referral on who best to send a group of coins that will give them out as gifts to younger collectors.. My primary concern is that the person receiving them does not sell them for profit..

Thanks everyone! If I have 4-5 coins I want to ask about do I have to start a new topic each time or can I just add to this one?

Best to do a new topic for each coin, keeps things nice & neat, especially regarding replies.
