I took a look through the noted errors for 1943 pennies and didn't notice this in the list. Any comments in regard to the coin would be appreciated. I'm still wet behind the ears with this new addiction to coins, so be gentle. If I see in any comments requesting a better photo I will get a clearer picture. Report this Post to the Staff

Rens Dekker New Member Canada 10 Posts	Posted 09/10/2019 4:26 pm This photo shows the C quite a bit clearer. From the replies it would seem that the general consensus is that this is circulation damage rather than a error. All comments are appreciated, knowledge is a good thing.
