Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74936 Posts	Posted 08/12/2018 4:23 pm That's not an error coin unfortunately. It's Post Strike Damage (it happened after it left the U.S. Mint). This is not possible to happen at the U.S. Mint. It's a squeeze job. Someone got a Lincoln Shield cent, put on top of a Lincoln Memorial cent, and smacked with a hammer, causing the details from the devices to get transferred onto your coin. http://www.error-ref.com/squeeze-jo...-garage-job/ The letters are incused, which means it was damaged. If it was a genuine Double Struck coin, it would look like this, and the letters would not be incused. Your coin is worth face value, since it's only a damaged coin. https://sullivannumismatics.com/inf...uble-strikes Errers and Varietys.
