Cdlubac68 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 03/05/2023 06:07 am I was hoping for help with this penny. Any opinions as to whether this is an error coin would be helpful. This penny weighs 2.74 grams. The errors are on the obverse and reverse. Take a look specifically at the bottom half of Lincoln, the hole right side of the obverse and the L in Liberty. Is the 1945 double die? Also on the reverse, the top; left the O in one and the top of the wheat. Also the M in America. Any feed back would be helpful. Thank you, Christina Report this Post to the Staff
