Not Another Lemon New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 11/30/2023 11:58 pm So I was going through my 1958 D pennies, and I came across this one. Is this PMD or is this a mint error. I can't figure out for the life of me. It's smaller than all the rest and it sounds different too. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94867 Posts	Posted 12/01/2023 07:58 am I see lots of roller lines on both sides. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Not Another Lemon New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 12/01/2023 3:54 pm Thanks @ Dearborn. I found a few examples of the roller lines you said. Sure enough that's what it is. I am less concerned at how worn it looks I just wanted to know what those lines are. The are same from front to back and they all travel in the same direction on both sides. So thanks for the info. Found this photo on this forum and ya it looks like the same straight lines. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 12/01/2023 4:23 pm I think there is a bit of confusion about the roller lines here. The 1978 is dirty roller lines and would be a keeper to me. The 1958-D I do not know what to call it. Let's see what some of the pros say. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 12/01/2023 4:40 pm With it being smaller in diameter, and differant sound I'm going to say acid etched. There is to much damage to just be roller lines. Maybe a improper mix with the acid effecting one of the metals differantly than the other. Report this Post to the Staff
