junjiesalvador Valued Member Philippines 212 Posts	Posted 06/13/2008 10:31 pm Hello. I would like to share with you a recently found 1968 D. Lincoln with a repunched date. I can't figure out what the previous year is. The 1968 S image is for comparison basis only. Junjie Report this Post to the Staff

arthrene Pillar of the Community United States 1713 Posts	Posted 06/14/2008 10:12 am What is a repunched date? Is it done by the mint or by people wanting to up the value of their coins? The 8 also looks like post mint damage to me but I don't know what a repunched date is supposed to look like. Report this Post to the Staff

junjiesalvador Valued Member Philippines 212 Posts	Posted 06/14/2008 9:52 pm Hello. Thank you for your feedback guys. Can anybody post a coin with a repunched date? Went over to Lincoln Cent Resource site but didn't find it there. Regards junjie Report this Post to the Staff
InfiniteInterest Pillar of the Community United States 673 Posts	Posted 06/15/2008 12:10 am Try the error and variety forum. I have posted several Indian Head cents with RPD's. As mentioned, there will be no RPD's in the Lincoln series as they were not punched into the die. Report this Post to the Staff
