Hello,
This is my first post so I hope that I am doing this right and in the correct forum.
The front of the coin has the date stamped and a very small amount of Lincoln's coat.

The back has: F America

I hope the pictures are acceptable. I was a bit unsteady taking them.

Thank you for your help.

to the forum.

I have no what the value would be, but an off-center coin that shows the date is more desirable than one that doesn't show it.

Is that something you found or purchased?

Oh yea a real beauty. Whatever the value be it $5 or $10, you can figure an additional 15-25% added on for a clear date. You have a very nice off center cent.

Welcome to the forum! That's a nice one! I wouldn't have a problem paying $10-15 for a coin like that.

It is a coin I got in change over 25 years ago I believe.
Thank you guys for your help. I had looked at over 350 pennys on ebay but did not see any with so much blank.
I had forgotten about it but was cleaning out the jewelry box and came across it.

Welcome to the forum Brian, that is a dandy off center penny. I dont know alot about error pricing but it should be worth around $15-$20 bucks. Does anyone know if many people try to make off center collections of certain denominations snd types; like 1909-58 wheats, etc. I think that would be a big challenge.

Great coin. These typically sell for 20 to 25 dollars, although people often try to sell them for $50.

for example, http://cgi.ebay.com/1971-Error-85-O...em255b3eb468
