CRHunting Valued Member United States 172 Posts	Posted 01/10/2022 5:37 pm Hey Everyone, I recently discovered this 1926 D penny. On the back of the penny there appears to be a raised silhouette of a head. I tried to take a few pictures with different lighting to show the raised area. Is this progressive indirect design transfer? If so I've read that it doesn't really change the value of the coin, is that correct? Thanks for the help! Report this Post to the Staff
