Tywing23 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 03/01/2019 1:23 pm Hi everyone, I am a novice coin collector and have recently started collecting Lincoln pennies, specifically wheat pennies by year. As I was going through rolls, I came across this penny. It is a 1977 Lincoln Penny with the memorial on the back seeming to be stamped twice with the second time being rotated a little over 180 degrees. If anyone could give me some guidance on what exactly it is I'm looking at, it would be much appreciated. I also wanted to confirm if it is a genuine double die as I'm not knowledgeable enough to say so for myself. Thank you!! Report this Post to the Staff

Tywing23 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 03/01/2019 1:38 pm You mean someone got glue on it and it caused another penny's back to copy on the coin or someone glued something to the coin? Like I said, really new to collecting so I'm still trying to learn. Report this Post to the Staff
