1984 Lincoln New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 05/29/2025 5:21 pm Hello, I am new here so thank you for having me. As I mentioned in the introduction post I have a penny that I found in our change jar that is rather interesting and was wondering if anyone had any insight. It is a 1984 Penny with what looks like an "O" stamped above the date. I hope this picture will post, again, I am new here and I am not sure I am doing this correctly. I resized to about 70 so hope it will work now. Thank you again. Report this Post to the Staff

I agree with the others above that this is a burst zinc bubble Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
