Lc2424 Valued Member United States 119 Posts	Posted 09/09/2020 12:01 pm To me looks like doubling features on the front of the coin. And the letters looks to be pushed over the edge or it was placed right in it Report this Post to the Staff

nemlas Valued Member United States 213 Posts	Posted 09/09/2020 12:04 pm The rim looks rather beat up. Was this coin ever in your dryer? Report this Post to the Staff

norantyki Valued Member 404 Posts	Posted 09/09/2020 1:42 pm The coin is a details, damaged piece. Although there might be some doubling visible, I think that this is perhaps some PMD combined with some VERY minor machine / Die Deterioration Doubling (pictures are not clear enough to tell which). This is a coin well within 'normal parameters,' and being damaged, is worth 1c. Report this Post to the Staff
josephm99 Pillar of the Community United States 791 Posts	Posted 09/09/2020 2:45 pm This is not a Dryer Coin as some have stated. On the 1968 cents, the master die swelled where the devices are touching the rim. This was fixed in 1969 with the new obverse and reverse designs. Report this Post to the Staff
