trl567 New Member United States 40 Posts	Posted 04/11/2019 4:35 pm Sorry I dont know the year of this penny. I put it in my penny pile of 100 or more and havent found it yet. I tried Googling and looked threw the forum to figure out what the spec or bump and the line was without any success. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21601 Posts	Posted 04/11/2019 4:42 pm I agree. It looks like the start of a linear plating bubble. Not considered an error so you won't find it anywhere. The spec is either a very small die chip or something stuck on the coin, I can't tell from the picture. Edited by JimmyD 04/11/2019 4:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34398 Posts	Posted 04/11/2019 9:21 pm @trl567, one quick and easy way to spot linear plating bubbles is to try to depress them with a wooden toothpick. It won't work 100% of the time, but if doing this does depress it, then you know it is a plating bubble for sure.
