Christina84 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 06/02/2022 12:22 pm I found this penny in my daughter's piggy bank. I've not been able to find anything on it. Does anyone know about this? It's a 1987 silver penny with a flag in front of Lincoln's face!? Report this Post to the Staff

captainmandrake1 Pillar of the Community United States 878 Posts	Posted 06/02/2022 12:47 pm Sorry, there's no 1987 silver pennies. Probably someone had a little fun with the penny, stamped it with a flag and probably plated with another metal. Can you show us a picture? Report this Post to the Staff
