CharPDX214 Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 02/02/2023 11:18 am I received a few rolls of pennies from my bank yesterday and I found this 1964 Lincoln Penny that looks to have no FG but I could be wrong and would like some professionals to weigh in on this topic. It could possibly be struck to Grease but I'm not 100% sure. Thank you for any and all input. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/02/2023 11:21 am Looks like the over polishing of the die removed the sub device on the initials. Just a die event. Often when this happens the initials, roof edges and the statue can be affected. Not a big deal, just another polished die example. Report this Post to the Staff
