Jtodd22 New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 07/13/2018 10:40 am I'm still new to coin collecting so take it easy on me but I found this penny from 1946 and on the obverse the 4 seems to be either rubbed off but on the reverse the A and the M are non existent and there seems to be some sort of indention in the same area that doesn't look normal to me. Any info is helpful thank you Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74849 Posts	Posted 07/13/2018 1:12 pm Nothing is missing. It's just damage that caused the metal to get pushed over and flattened. It's Post Strike Damage. And no, it DOESN'T increase the value. It decreases it. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
