Titles are Important! * Found 1957 penny with a 7 looking like a question mark. Also there is a blob between B and E in word liberty. Wondering if it's worth keeping. Report this Post to the Staff

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7512 Posts	Posted 11/14/2018 7:55 pm Your Seven is severedit has been smashed flat with the metal pushed out of position. But the blob you are referring to is a small die chip located in between the B and E and it is known as BIE, in the case of your coin it will be considered partial BIE. Report this Post to the Staff

I think that most LWCs are worth saving unless they are culls as they are worth a few times face value. I'm not sure that this one is worth saving in a 2x2, but certainly in a coin roll with other common date wheaties.
