sunshine76 New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 08/14/2021 3:08 pm I'm new at this and not sure if I am posting this right but, I have a 1966 penny with a strange marking. Could someone please let me know if it is a mint error or something else, thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

I'm not sure what the figure represents, but it's just Post Mint Damage. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!
