merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 02/03/2020 03:06 am Not sure of error terminology, but I found this strange rim error on a 1981 Cent while looking through a huge jug of Canadian pennies recently that hasn't been touched in 30 years. Weight is 2.75 grams. Can someone please explain this one to me? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
