Hey guys, new here. I found this while coin roll hunting and wasn't sure if it was an error or not. You can barely make out some details on the obverse but you can see it's a 1982. The back is not worn much at all which makes me doubt it's just wear. Sorry for the picture quality, I don't own a camera and I have a 6 year old phone.

Thanks a lot guys. That explanation makes a lot more sense than a blank if there's some definition on the coin.

@CB, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree with the others that this one is a keeper. Best to save it in a 2x2 for protection.

yes I plan to pick up some of those soon. Didn't expect to need one on my first box. Also found 13 Wheaties and a George VI and I'm just halfway through.

If you have 13LWCs halfway thru, that's really good, I usually get 5-10 at the most per box!

to CCF. Nice find. Now you need to weight it and find out if it is copper or copper plated zinc,then write that on the holder.
