Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 07/25/2019 4:11 pm It looks like someone has pressed another coin into the surface of your coin. Also know as a vise job. It's a damaged Wheat cent now, not an error. The value to a collector is maybe 1¢. Sorry. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
