Punkie17 New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 03/07/2024 9:21 pm Hi! I have a set of 1943 steel pennies and 2 of them have errors. The 1943 S has some die cracks on the obverse and reverse. For having the set (and they claimed not circulated but some details seem a little rubbed down to me on the face) and 2 of the 3 with errors does it make the price rise up much or better to sale seperate? I will post the other one once I convert it but for now I just have the 1943 S. Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8730 Posts	Posted 03/07/2024 10:14 pm What makes you feel as if you have an error coin? I see what you are pointing out but see no errors. You have a coin that has die cracks, die gouges, die dots and what looks to be some PSD to the coin, along with a tired die. All of these things are a natural progression of a die but nothing, that I see that warrants an error. Let me know your thoughts. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94786 Posts	Posted 03/08/2024 08:58 am Your coin appears to have been replated, some of the bumps could have resulted from the replating process. and maybe filled the mm and the 4 in the date. But you do have a die crack or 2 there, but not big enough to warrant a premium Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
