Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74060 Posts	Posted 07/03/2023 7:21 pm I bought this off of ebay a while back. Don't remember how much I paid exactly, but it was fairly cheap. Too bad about the scratch on the reverse, but it is what it is. I knew about it, before buying it. It was visible in the pictures.

Spence Moderator United States 34402 Posts	Posted 07/03/2023 8:58 pm I wonder if that scratch is from a staple on a 2x2 from a previous owner. Otherwise it looks nice. For completeness, could you please add the diameter of this cent to the thread? Thx @e&v!

Spence Moderator United States 34402 Posts	Posted 07/03/2023 9:07 pm Brass vernier calipers? At least that is what I use. They are about ten bucks on the interwebs, but also available at hobby stores.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95740 Posts	Posted 07/03/2023 9:13 pm How does this coin stack up against a 'normal sized' cent? Is it larger in diameter than a normally struck one, or the same size? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74060 Posts	Posted 07/04/2023 12:07 pm Thanks everyone! John1, yeah, that's a fingerprint. Not from me though. I always wear gloves when handling coins. Quote: This seems like a silly question. Coming from someone who has over 27,000 post I know. I have never measured one before. That's why I asked. I'll just put a normal Cent, next to it to show the difference in size. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 07/04/2023 12:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
