I have the opportunity to buy this coin and I want to know If the error is legit and what it is worth in this condition.

Is the reverse a true 180° out? Meaning is Memorial centered w/ remaining image of bust? Appears to be a real error, not postmint, but I'm amazed at the greezer effect and all the extra partials on reverse plus Cud? on obv...



Looks like it might have bounced around in/out of the die a few times?

Id'e be skeptical - too many things don't add up to how that would have happened at the mint. Plus not really much evidence of a true rim that would be started on a real planchet. And I doubt wrong planchet as there were no other copper planchets during the Lincoln Cent era.

Its so one of a kind type error, I wouldn't pay premium for it, maybe $5.00-$8.00 max. That way don't lose shorts if a makey-uppy!

I don't believe die adjustment strikes usually have rims? I also don't think It's struck on a foreign planchet.

Maybe coop can weigh in...

Heres a an example of an off center die adjustment strike on a nickel. I can't find one a cent
