Having some trouble determining whether or not this 1973 Lincoln Penny is rare error? There is clearly some rim damage error, but I also noticed there are two strikethroughs between the letters "STA" (middle of S, top of T, top of A) on the reverse. Is this a common mistake or would this coin have some value? Report this Post to the Staff
