Hi, how the heck do I create a post? I wanted any info I can get regarding the Lincoln Cent pictured above. as you can see, part of the reverse is over the obverse and visa versa.

@jojo, first welcome to CCF. Second, you create a post by opening up the appropriate forum (e.g. US modern coins in your specific example) and then pressing the "new topic" button in the middle of the page.

I split your post to its own thread in the proper section.

Your Lincoln Cent has glue or some sealant on it where two coins were glued together. See the reverse image letters on the dark section.

Probably a mixture of soda and coffee that collected and dried between change at the bottom of a vehicle's cup holder.

I don't see any sarcasm in the above posts? Were some removed?

It appears to have been two (or more) coins that were glued together, then pulled apart again. You can see in the bottom pic, an incuse-reverse impression of the reverse of another Memorial cent pressed into the glue.

Either way, it is just "glue stuck onto a coin", not some kind of mint error.
