Coin Idiot Valued Member United States 58 Posts	Posted 08/25/2024 7:13 pm Was looking thru some of my old pennies, again today and found this. There is one for sale just like it right now on ebay. I also saw some on another site as well. Is this a mint error or just damage? Report this Post to the Staff

donnie59 Pillar of the Community United States 780 Posts	Posted 08/25/2024 7:35 pm I would like to think this is damage from a hit. Considering the coin has been heavily circulated, it's a strong possibility. Report this Post to the Staff
Coin Idiot Valued Member United States 58 Posts	Posted 08/25/2024 7:44 pm Okay, I have now seen 4 of these coins including mine today. Could this a Broken Hub coin? https://www.error-ref.com/broken-hub/ Report this Post to the Staff
