Haggaris New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 04/13/2024 4:29 pm My 9 year old daughter, ironically who is named Penny, and I have just gotten into coin collecting, so we are pretty new to this. We found this 1960 D penny that looks like the numbers are almost smashed. The top letters also look like the die was off. The D is a very unique shape as well. There is a line on the rim along the bottom right. I am attaching pictures that we took with my phone and one from the coin microscope. I was hoping this is a large and small number overlap. If I can't use the microscope I can take that photo off., but obviously the microscope shows us the clearest view. Can anyone tell me if we have something special? Report this Post to the Staff
