@l8989, that is an interesting cent. Assuming that the extra letter T is proud (above the surface of the rim), you might have an example of Rim Restricted Design Duplication. Here is a link to the error-ref website with that info:

Can anyone explain what we're looking at here? I've been staring at it for like 10 minutes because people are commenting about an extra letter "T" and I don't see where it is.

@sc, look at the rim above the second T of TRUST and you will see a partial letter.

@Spence were some pictures removed from the post or are they just not showing up on mobile? Trust isn't in any of the pictures I'm able to see...

Hmm weird. The pics are all still there when I view this thread on my desktop computer. The third pic shows this most clearly, but it is even visible on the first pic (which is an overall of the obv).

Weird, I'll have to pull it up on my desktop later. The overall isn't showing up for me either. Strange, since I've used this forum a bunch on mobile and never encountered this...

I'm on my desktop now and I'm getting five pics. 1-GOD. 2-IN, 3-ERTY 4-LIBER 5-full date only. No overall pics at all, nothing with any part of "TRUST".

This isn't an error. It's Post Strike Damage ( PSD). The letters are from a coin being dropped on it. You can see the pushed and shoveled metal from being displaced.

What is on the edge above that area. It looks like a struck though debris that is now on the edge of the coin? It happens some times:

hello Lincoln8989

In a round about way, Spence asked if the T on the rim was raised?

PSD from another coin (vise job)?
Lets say it is incused. The "T" is from TRUST and the letter to the right is a backwards "S" from TRUST.

EDIT:
Lincoln8989 is the "T" raised or incused?

I found this coin in a roll of 1971 and notice the extra T on the rim Not sure how it got there Can't be another coin fell on top of it because the T looks clean and the rim don't look like another coin was struck on top of the rim But I'm just an amateur

Did the OP remove a few photos? I too don't see an obverse photo, and in Liberty I see only a half of the T.

As to values, we always direct everyone to ebay's sold listings. We rarely know dollar amounts, but ebay can show you what your coin has actually sold for. This is better than any book can show you.
