It could have been in a drawer, jar, or was opened from a BU OBW roll.
Errers and Varietys.

Sorry, Errers, but this is plainly evidence of TIME TRAVEL!  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Somebody kept the best, spent the rest. Now it's your turn.  |

Please explain where you got this cent! To me it looks like about a 63.

Marve, some people have lots of old cents hanging around.   Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

wow, what a conversation here!  and to the OP - it could have been in somebody's collection and then was released into the wild.  |

Yes, not unheard of to have 'old' BU++ cents pop up. As stated, a new cent could have been out of circulation shortly after being distributed. Could have spent decades at the bottom of an infrequently visited sock drawer, or just now freed from a BU roll hoard. Nice find!

In my pocket change, I have pennies from the 60s that look like they just came out of the mint. This forum told me that they are just spenders. I don't know much about that but you know better than I dk.
