RubyRedF150 New Member United States 0 Posts	Posted 03/02/2025 1:07 pm Hello all, I just came across this penny and figured I'd ask since I can't find anything on the web about it. It's a 1978 D penny, front seems to have a wider ridge but the real story is the back. There's a perfectly centered bump and almost no imprint of the stamp on it. The face doesn't show any deviation to get this rear bump. Anyone know anything about these? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by RubyRedF150 03/02/2025 1:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff
