I'm a small collector of US coins most for novelty purposes. But I came across a 3.1g us penny with no mint mark condition is pretty dam good but I'm no grader but the details of both side are chips clean a very clear. So one noticeable error that I rarely seen was no mint mark and then I noticed the date at first glance I thought it was 1931 penny as I picked up up to use my magnifying glass I saw that the thrird digit in the date would change to an 8 then a E the a S. So I looked closer and yes even under a magnifying glass up close it was definitely changing characters. Slo I flipped it over to see the memorial side and right off the top on the right side last 2 steps the LETTERS EG are noticeable so any help will do I have a unique error coin or is it post mint

We will gladly help you, but we will need images first. We are locking this topic to prevent posts with "We need images". You will get many more quality responses when there are quality images in the first post of a topic. Please start a new topic when you are able to upload pictures. If needed you can use the testing forum. Tutorials are below.

Note: When you start a new topic this one may be removed. So don't panic if you get an email that your topic was removed it's only this one.

PC: We highly recommend IrfanView. (Download) (Irfanview Tutorial)

Apple Computers: Tutorial here: http://goccf.com/t/466343

Cell Phones (iPhone or Android): First, do not upload cell phone pictures of screens. They are terrible. Please check your camera settings are set to Medium quality. If it uses compression use 70%, it's perfectly fine for the internet. For file type please use WEBP if your phone has it, otherwise JPG. Avoid PNG and GIF, they are horrible choices. Be sure to crop the image to only show the coin. This is a great setup for cell phones.
