So I've been doing research lately on the 1990 no s penny and I just wanted to post a picture and see if anyone could give me your honest opinion on if it is or not and if It's worth turning into a coin shop. I'm sorry about the glare of the penny it's really shiny Report this Post to the Staff

However, the 1990 No S Proof Lincoln Cent was inadvertently struck by a mint state die that had been processed as a proof die. This occurred because the Mint had shipped a mint state die to the San Francisco Mint without the die containing the S mint mark. According to current estimations, there are only around 250 Lincoln Cents from this year that do not have their mintmark so its EXTREMELY unlikely but at least its not a Report this Post to the Staff
