why maineman ? you think is just a simple Grease Filled Die ? can be but the double is too evident for me to be a just grease die the problem is I dont know how to take good pics noway is a Machine Doubling ! so what do you think is it ? give your opinion .

Ricardo - Sorry, I just saw this. Your coin looks like a rotated capped die. I might just be. If you didn't already, I'm going to post it in the errors forum. I've only ever seen one of them before, so I'm not certain, it could be post mint damage as well.

Here is the rotated capped die Lincoln found by another forum member. These are extremely rare errors.

I'm hoping the US Mint made that impression. Hmm, I guess not.

Since I live in Dallas, TX, I was wondering why I sometimes get Canadian cents in bank rolls of cents. I've gotten maybe 20 or more looking through a few hundred bank cent rolls. Do you think there are some Canadians that live close by that just happen to get rid of their homeland cents since they are the same size as Lincoln's? I got a shiny new 2006 Canadian cent in one roll that may be close to AU/BU. If people in NY have a hard time getting "S" mint Lincolns, then why am I getting a good amount of Canadians?

We may have a hard time finding S mints but we find them and Canadians too. The Canadian money is probably all over the US. I average about 10-12 S mints and 10-12 Canadians per $50 bag.

I always find more canadian cents in my searches than I do with those elusive S mints. I save both!

I get a few Canadians down here on the coast of Texas and 5-7 S mints per box. Would think we would pick up a couple from Bermuda and the Bahama's per box but I sure don't. Near finished with all my organizing so getting me a box tomorrow.

I am finding about 1-2 S mints per 5 rolls up here in Alaska but very few Philadelphias... last 3 S mint coins I found were 73,71 and a 70 yay all in two rolls. I only have the time to search 2-3 rolls a day because I am going to college full time and working full time as well....

Good news for Ricardo and his 1983...Mike Diamond gave his opinion: Quote: While its appearance is a bit odd, it was most likely struck through a rotated, late-stage die cap. I don't know any other error (or any form of post-strike modification) that produces widespread, normally-oriented incuse design elements. I suspect the odd appearance is just due to being heavily circulated.

I've been taking a break from searching pennies for a while, just doing nickels. Well I finally decided to search the Brink's box I had sitting here since before Christmas. The box gave up this;   Along with 34 wheats, the oldest being a '18.  And a lot of copper Canadians, including a '51. Starting off the new year with a good box...
