timbryant1989 New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 05/09/2009 01:19 am I recived a 1996 Lincoln Cent today, that has a hole right near the right top of lincolns head, and some indentions in his forehead. Is this anything special, or just another crap coin ? Report this Post to the Staff

wd1040 Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 05/09/2009 01:22 am I bet someone tried to make a pendant out of it... and then discovered it was just a lame piece of zinc... Any pics? I would venture to think the indentations are from the attempts to make a hole. Report this Post to the Staff

Errors and varieties are a very visually specific collectible. Without images, telling exactly what you have is impossible. Report this Post to the Staff
