freeqgirl Valued Member United States 143 Posts	Posted 12/18/2017 09:00 am The obverse is definitely rounded in from the collar, instead of flat. Is this a broadstrike? If not, what would be the correct name for this? Report this Post to the Staff

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 12/18/2017 09:11 am Just guessing the start of a Dryer Coin, not broadstrike. Your combination picture makes the images small. If you can post individual images the Cent they can show larger. Report this Post to the Staff

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 12/18/2017 09:53 am Those larger pictures are better. If the reverse is normal, it appears to be a slight MAD. But since none of the design appears to be missing, it probably won't have any premium. Report this Post to the Staff

freeqgirl Valued Member United States 143 Posts	Posted 12/18/2017 10:01 am Thank you Fuzzy317! The reverse looks like it may be a tad higher set than normal, but because it's such a small thing I haven't been able to get a good picture of it. I am assuming MAD means machine error? John1, Howya doin, eh?! You upper or lower? And thanks for the welcome. This place so far has been awesome! I have a lot more to ask about and learn so I hope to get to know everyone and gain some good knowledge here! :) Report this Post to the Staff
