An error/variety lot I bought recently had these two coins in it. Both show almost nothing of interest on the reverse, yet have strong errors visible on the obverse. Just a reminder to look at both sides of a coin.

1977 Lincoln Memorial cent with indent and partial collar

1977 is middle coin with indent on the right facing up


1965 Lincoln Memorial cent struck through late stage die cap

Coincents, another coin intruded into the chamber and got pressed with the one already in there. Be interesting to see the intruder coin!

With no visible brockage I was thinking it was a planchet that got in there, not another coin. But errors are not my area so I will listen to those who know them far more than I.

Thanks E&V! I'm not sure these are drool-worthy but I have to admit that I like struck through die cap coins and have a few of them. For the level of mayhem caused to the coin and fact that each one is kinda unique as the cap erodes they seem like a bargain for what the sell for. I paid ten bucks for this one.
