Can someone please help me. I am not an expert or even anything close to it but this Penny seems odd. The first thing I noticed was the edge of the penny.[/img]
There is an overlapping zinc feature on the head side of the penny yet on the tail side of the penny is copper which goes under the zinc. On the backside of the penny[/img]
there is a notable recess that is deeper than other pennies. On the front side of the penny[/img]
the mint mark seems as if there is either two of them or distorted in some kind of way. I apologize for the poor quality of my photos.

What you have here is a damaged coin. It happened after it left the U.S. Mint.
Errers and Varietys.

Mangled coin - most likely stuck inside of a commercial laundry machine.

Thank you . I find error coins interesting and it's a new hobby that I just picked up. I have a couple of Roosevelt dimes that I was curious about I will post them. I appreciate your answers. |
