 to CCF. It is a 1962-D with damage on the 2 making it look like a 7. So, it is PSD=Post Mint Damage. Pics are fine. John1

Thanks John1 for your reply. I thought that might be the case after I posted it, weird how that happens. Seems like the 2 was smudged north/west by something flat but it seemed odd that there was no other indication of damage to the rim of the coin. Probably happened when it was fairly new. Thanks again, very helpful.

They didn't make a 1967-D cent... LOL PSD as mentioned. Gumball Machine Damage. How can I tell? The date is in the range for this type of issue on coins to be altered by a machine. Also damage if parallel to the rim. Denoting that is was machine altered rather than coin contact.

wow! you guys are awesome. It's pretty cool you got it down to the actual type of machine that did this! Ha! Ha! I bet you're right, I remember how those machines used to jam the coins sometimes, but... I don't remember the ones that gave you candy for a penny (before my time). Thanks alot for the replies.

'If it wasn't sweet, it wasn't fit to eat". (but I bet the sugar content is probably higher now. It was just ch eaper to buy then. 5c and 10c candy bars. Now a buck or more. No wonder we look old now?  No, that not me.....
