hertzyinmn Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 05/18/2018 12:42 pm Hello, I have found these two coins, they were encased in old paper sleeves that someone had saved, They look to be quite odd ,The penny has a doubling on top of the seven but cant be seen from the pic , the interesting area is the line over the zero. And the nickel appears to be missing date all together , any thoughts welcome I thought I would share my find. Thanks ahead for any comments. Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 05/18/2018 1:06 pm The cent is damaged from a coin roll wrapping machine. The nickel looks buffed, on a polishing wheel, note the difference between front and rear images for normal wear, is way too smooth. Not a mint grease strike through based on the smoothness.

hertzyinmn Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 05/18/2018 1:14 pm I guess I would agree on the nickel being buffed . But not agree with the cent from a wrapping machine there would be circular images and also I need to under stand why is there a raised image that is identical to the seven, over the zero , also the rim is wider on the left edge, I think there is a minting error in this coin.

bobby131313 Forum Dad United States 24165 Posts	Posted 05/18/2018 1:21 pm We see these all the time. Wrapping machine pushed in the 0. It was calibrated just off enough to catch the date and not the fields. Here's another one... Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/18/2018 9:00 pm Actually the 1970 is from a vending machine. The wrapping machine issue is further in on the coin. A Gumball Machine damages more to the edge near the rim, leaving the metal parallel to the rim. Edited an old image to update it a bit from the two coins on this thread.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74444 Posts	Posted 05/18/2018 10:33 pm Both are Post Strike Damage. The Lincoln Memorial cent was damaged by a vending machine, causing the 0 to get pushed. The Nickel has been aggressively polished from a polishing wheel from a buffer. Errers and Varietys.
