1967 1 Cent, Beakless Birds From Original Bank Wrapped Roll

There were only 9 original bank wrapped rolls from 1967 in the box of $25 and the rest were customer wrapped and had various years, out of that 9 I have about 1 to possibly 2 full rolls that show a cameo from light to heavy, I did not pay too much attention to the cameo on them as I was mainly focused on the legend to see if there was doubling so I could have more, I plan to take a second look at the obverse of all 9 rolls of the mint state 67's from the box and note how many have cameo and how many don't.

I just finished overlooking all of the reverses of the 1967's I have for a second time just to confirm how many had beaks, now I plan to do the same for the obverse ones with cameo and filled dies/strike throughs.

I also found a couple good examples of Zoell's "Double Date"




There are also a few of these, from Coins and Canada they are calling this Die Deterioration but I'm not exactly sure, something is going on with the rim though.






Then I have 2 with a lot of missing beads and what I assume is either a Grease Filled Die, or Struck Through Grease as there was grease residue all over this coin.




i figured I would add all of these here instead of making a bunch of separate posts for the same year coin as I thought they were also fairly interesting.

From these photos, the queens hair seems to be unaffected by anything even on the "beakless birds", the portraits all look as they should unless I'm missing something.

So over the past couple of months I had a lot of interest in these coins, I also had Coins and Canada reach out to me regarding the beakless birds, apparently I am not the only one that has found these 1967 pennies with the beaks/face missing.

In 2010 a coin community member by the username ChickLit also found one, http://goccf.com/t/62903&SearchTerms=beakless,bird

I have also found 2 more recently while searching BU Original bank wrapped rolls. I am only reviving this post because it may mean something to someone some day. I was going by it being a weak strike like suggested but a lot of people for some reason became interested in it so I thought I would do a little update.

I plan to include it in my 2020 Catalogue in the minor error section, I've been asked to sell one on numerous occasions recently but I refuse to sell them until I know exactly what it is, I also wouldn't feel to good if it turned out to be really common (i think it probably is). I'm just not that type of person, Research is what I am after in the long run.
