Xian112 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 03/28/2023 07:25 am I found a 2000 Lincoln Cent that is missing the date, unless you tilt it at a certain angle. Then you can see 2000 however it isn't raised up off the face of the coin Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 03/28/2023 07:28 am @xian, first welcome to CCF. Second, looks like this cent was Struck Through Grease which prevented the date from striking up clearly. That is a fun find.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19144 Posts	Posted 03/28/2023 07:33 am Posted pics show a lot of glare--difficult to determine what may be happening. At this point, I'd suspect a Grease Filled Die. Coin could be worth anywhere from 1 to 10 cents. There are a few collectors who love to acquire fun examples with greased die issues.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95443 Posts	Posted 03/28/2023 2:17 pm looks like the date is there with the right angle of lighting - I see 2000 for a date. Possibly a nice Grease Filled Die, a nice find too. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15409 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 05:28 am to the CCF Agree its likely a Grease Filled Die. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 12:38 pm It's a 2000-D cent. (Image 3 shows me this) As mentioned possible Grease Fill die issue: Only valuable when 80% or more is missing because of the grease blockage. Modest premium when they get to this extreme. Yours is just a spender. (weight will be normal. 2.5 grams) Edited by coop 03/29/2023 12:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
