So everyone, I have really been getting into this coin search for errors and other oddities. I happen to come across this 1964 penny and it seems that lincoln has a double eyebrow or guess you may call it "feelers" protruding out from eyebrow area. I can not find anything like it when I search on th internet. Debating to have it professionally checked out. What are your thoughts?  *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ****** Edited by Staff to clarify topic title. Titles are important! *** |

It is not something on the coin is it? I can't imaging what during the minting process would cause that?

No its not something on the coin. It is actually part of it. That is why I wanted to put it out there to get opinions on having checked out.

A closer view might help on that area of the face?

Note sure what that could be. Is there any edges that look fastened to the coin. Of is there no line there?

It looks like there's a divot to the left of the raised, rectangular blemish in the field. That suggests that a small piece of metal was gouged up from Lincoln's eyebrow and relocated to the field. Subsequent wear has perhaps obscured the plane of separation between the metal shaving and the field.

Thanks Mike. The image was a fuzzy there and I missed that.

Debating to have it professionally checked out. There you have it Burdine. That's exactly what it is. You just had it professionally checked, now that it's mentioned, I see it too. It was dug out, flipped over, and still attached on the left side. Hmmm... divot, that's a golf term I believe. Edited by CoinMasters
