Shane30530 Valued Member Canada 73 Posts	Posted 04/09/2024 9:56 pm Hello everyone. Hoping I could get someone's opinion as to what happened to this penny. It's weight is 2.3 grams, is a rum smaller than regular penny and Is 1 1/4 times thicker than regular penny. Thanks in advance for any help. Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 04/09/2024 9:59 pm Looks like that poor cent spent some time in a dryer, and got post mint damaged, so not a mint error... Report this Post to the Staff
Shane30530 Valued Member Canada 73 Posts	Posted 04/09/2024 10:02 pm Thanks mrwhatisit. So this happens when a coin is caught behind the drum? Report this Post to the Staff
mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 04/09/2024 10:08 pm Pretty much. Imagine one has a few coins in your pants pockets and a few of them fall out during the drying process. The continual spinning of the dryer bangs such coins about to what we see here.

CoinMonster New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 04/11/2024 05:49 am I was thinking "Incomplete Plating". Then, I did a Google Images search on "Dryer Penny", and most of the images that came up looks exactly like your penny, .... including the raised rims everyone mentioned. Looks like the verdict is guilty for being a " Dryer Coin". I'm weighing in because "Incomplete Plating" pennies look like "Dryer Penny Coins". Thought the "Incomplete Plating" error might be something you would enjoy researching, and adding to your coin hunting knowledge. Cheers!! Report this Post to the Staff
