susiebell New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 06/08/2020 7:22 pm Hi! I was wondering if this penny was an error or just worn weird. I found it in a box of rolls from my grandfather with the highest date being 1981, that's the only reason I believe its 1980 or 81. Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

susiebell New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 06/08/2020 8:37 pm Thank you guys so much! He collected so many coins and he saved this box of pennies. My uncle passed them down to me to let me go through them and try and figure out what he saved so many for. I'm sure this wont be my last question! Report this Post to the Staff
