I dunno man, I find tons of these coin roll hunting. In my opinion, which may be totally wrong, I think you got a bad deal on this

It's not a major broadstrike, it's actually difficult to notice with these images. But still cool.
There is no way ItsDaBunnyYT found tons of these coin ROLL hunting. Broadstrikes make the coin larger than usual so they would not fit in a roll.

ItsDaBunnyYT, this is a Broadstrike cent. It's not a major one, but it's still a Broadstrike. And no, I didn't get a bad deal on this. I know what I'm doing. Tanman, thank you for the comment! To prove I'm correct, I'm going to provide the ebay link from the coin I bought. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2001-D-Lin...-cvip-panelpErrers and Varietys.

For educational purposes may I ask what causes a broad strike error?

Oldmike, I do agree with you that it's hard to see. This one wasn't easy to get pictures of. I was having trouble with too much glare and stuff. Chafemasterj, here you go. This is the meaning of Broadstrike and what causes it. From error-ref.com: Quote:Definition: A coin that is struck outside the collar. The collar is the retaining ring that establishes the final diameter of the newly-struck coin. A broadstrike will expand beyond the diameter of a normal coin, sometimes drastically so.
A perfectly centered coin that is struck out-of-collar is simply called a "broadstrike". An imperfectly centered coin that is struck out-of-collar is called an "uncentered broadstrike".
In order to qualify as a broadstrike, the full design must be present on both faces. If the design is cut off on either face, it is called an "off-center strike".http://www.error-ref.com/broadstrikes/ Errers and Varietys.

You're very welcome and thank you for congratulating me on 5000 posts! So a broadstrike, if you think of it this way, it's like a pancake, expanding on the pan when you pour the liquid on the pan.
