Found a 1990 D Penny with some erros (I believe) including a error that I've have not found any report. -Letter "A" on Lincoln's face- I'll attach some images from everything. Please tell me what you guys think about this coin errors and condition. I really appreciate the help and attention of everyone one here! Report this Post to the Staff

lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1657 Posts	Posted 01/29/2023 05:17 am Welcome. I'm not seeing any errors, but the coin was struck from a very worn die that was beginning to sink causing the raised areas around the perimeter. I don't see what you are calling a letter A on Lincoln, can you show a closeup of that? Report this Post to the Staff
bugil46 Pillar of the Community United States 579 Posts	Posted 01/29/2023 05:58 am I see the A on full obverse picture. It's below the eye on the cheek. Very interesting. Report this Post to the Staff

Seeing a Ridge Ring forming is one of your first indications that the coin was struck with a worn out die. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

On the last picture I'll put a regular penny right next. This may help. I'm very thankful for all the support! Report this Post to the Staff
