So hello, it's been quite a bit since I had something I wanted to share and see if anyone has seen or heard of before. I can't find anything online even remotely close to this penny and it's errors. Enjoy.  If anyone wants to see more pics, let me know here . And I'll upload more. I took several from several angles and lighting. What would something like this be valued at.. I'm just curious. *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. *** |

From the photo shown, it looks like it was Struck Through Grease, worth perhaps several dollars premium for a nice example like this where the date and LIBERTY are all but missing. How does the reverse look? |

Yes, appears to be a grease issue. A pic of the reverse would be welcome. It's always a good idea to view the entire coin--helps establish context.

@ori, I don't think you have any doubling though. With this amount of grease in the die, any remnant parts of the die striking up the inscription would be a bit thicker than the part of the die that strikes the bottom of the letters and numbers.

Nice Grease Filled Die strike. It's not going to fund your retirement - maybe a few $ |
