Abrow325 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 8:21 pm Hi I'm new at coin searching! Still not clear on errors but still researching. Can anyone tell me if anything is wrong with this penny? It seems to have a ring around and anywhere the wrong touches, it changes to color of the letter/ number. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95075 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 10:40 pm need a much better image - larger and better cropped. This also could be a Ridge Ring - seeing how it is in the usual location where they appear, combined to being so close to the rim. So pick your poison - Wrapping Machine Damage, or Ridge Ring.
