armywife111701 Valued Member United States 194 Posts	Posted 05/13/2019 5:13 pm I am finding a few coins that have stuck out as being different. And I am trying to learn what to look for and what is normal. Any help would be appreciated. This is ine of them. A 197?'s Lincoln Penny that has the edges and most of the lettering missing. Is this a partial blank? Mis struck? Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74147 Posts	Posted 05/13/2019 5:16 pm To CCF! Just a damaged coin showing Post Strike Damage ( PSD), meaning that the damage happened after it left the U.S. Mint (after the strike). Not an error and worth 1 cent. Errers and Varietys.

That said, I hope that you post more of your odd coins here.

Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 05/13/2019 8:23 pm That is a great point @jimbucks. @AW111701, I believe that when you took this picture with your phone, you were holding it vertically. If you can hold it horizontally (i.e. with both hands), then your next pics should come out right-side up when you post them here. Thx!
