Snoopydoo Valued Member United States 443 Posts	Posted 12/22/2020 02:18 am Please let me know your thoughts. This was taken from a bankroll of uncirculated 1974-D pennies. Thank you for your time! Basically a floating head Lincoln? Edited by Snoopydoo 12/22/2020 02:44 am Report this Post to the Staff

Kloccwork419 Pillar of the Community United States 1359 Posts	Posted 12/22/2020 10:01 am Im guessing there was a remnant of a clash before they filed it away, along with some of the design. This is common. Spend it Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 12/22/2020 5:17 pm I agree with all of the above. Over polishing, but head is still attached. Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 12/22/2020 8:45 pm I bought a mint sewn bag of 1974-D cents that had more than 5600 coins and 95% of them look just like this. They also show slight die rotation. Is the reverse slightly rotated on your coin? ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff

Rothery Pillar of the Community 2145 Posts	Posted 12/22/2020 9:41 pm Well, with well over 4 BILLION 74-D cents minted I'm sure the mint did alot of die polishing........... Report this Post to the Staff
jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4692 Posts	Posted 12/22/2020 9:52 pm I have a handful of these I set aside in 1974. Apparently common. Report this Post to the Staff
Snoopydoo Valued Member United States 443 Posts	Posted 12/23/2020 12:22 am These are all 74-D's that I opened from rolls I'd been saving, and am working into flips. Sounds like I wasted my time, but I'm just a common kinda guy I guess. Report this Post to the Staff
Snoopydoo Valued Member United States 443 Posts	Posted 12/23/2020 12:43 am Sorry Yokozuna, missed your question my first time thru. Yes, this coin has a bit of a die rotation. Report this Post to the Staff
