I just found this penny while going thru rolls. I noticed it looks really really odd. The y in liberty is almost completely nonexistent, the neck on Lincoln looks way to "thin", the back of his head looks odd lol, and his chin/beard look off. I've looked everywhere for info on this coin but I've had zero luck. Any help with this would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!! Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Second, that missing letter Y might be from a bit of grease having been in the die when this coin was struck.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 20328 Posts	Posted 05/24/2025 07:44 am If it looks "odd", then it didn't look like that when it left the mint that is why you can't find anything on it. It looks like there is something on the surface and the Y is missing probably due to a partial Grease Filled Die. Report this Post to the Staff

Marve65 Pillar of the Community United States 5724 Posts	Posted 05/26/2025 4:39 pm Forgot to mention seeing your cents are 1992 - look for the WAM or CAM on the reverse. For 92 the Close AM is rare. Report this Post to the Staff
