roinesks New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 12/30/2021 11:41 am Hello all, I am new to the this forum and I am hoping for some guidance. I occasionally buy collections at estate sales and the photographed 1913 Wheat was included in one of the collections. Has anyone seen this type of error or manipulation? I really appreciate any feedback that you may have. Thanks!! Report this Post to the Staff

It was pressed with a different die on that area. I feel this is not a mint error. It was added post strike. Just a damaged Wheat cent now. Report this Post to the Staff

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 12/30/2021 1:16 pm It is the first simulation mint error I see in this way. I have the idea of the process, it is something to deep on. I will like know from where come on. this must be a goldsmith work. Report this Post to the Staff
