Jay30777 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 03:33 am I Was coin roll hunting a bank box of pennies and found this error when magnifying. I checked this at every angle and against other 1985 D pennies. This is original and I can't find any other example of it online. I think I found a unique coin here. Report this Post to the Staff

I've been collecting for years but I do not have the experience and identifying or labeling the types of abnormalities I find on coins. Thank you again. Report this Post to the Staff
