ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19152 Posts	Posted 10/25/2024 2:44 pm I'm thinking no, not a mint error. I do believe I'm seeing zinc rot engulfing the mint mark--not that uncommon with zinc core Lincoln memorial cents. Must ask, what does the reverse look like? Report this Post to the Staff

Tacc Pillar of the Community United States 3535 Posts	Posted 10/25/2024 3:08 pm Agree, common to see zinc rot at or around the Mint Mark on these zinc core cents. Can you provide Clearer/in-focus pictures? Report this Post to the Staff
