yung_bath_salts Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 01/26/2022 2:52 pm Hello Coin Community, Recently found this cent, hoping to get confirmation on the Broadstrike. Additionally, it would be helpful to know (in your experience) how common this Error is for this year. Thank you for all of your help! Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95437 Posts	Posted 01/26/2022 4:08 pm If it is larger, then I would say that it is a broadstrike, usually the the coin would be much larger,. Perhaps the collar expanded slightly during the strike or wasn't closed completely. This is not my area of expertise, so soon, the real experts should chime in. Collecting since 1972.
