      Blunder hit this on the penny. Poorly struck coin on the head part, nice on the other.

      Oh wow, that's a hot mess! The date is stamped upside down too
    3. shandalar_rose, 8 years ago
      i didnt notice the date being upside down anyone the value of the penny
    4. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 8 years ago
      Shandalar, I can't tell by the pix about the date, but that is a mistake that is next to impossible to make using coin dies ! Since you hold it, what is your opinion ?
    5. shandalar_rose, 8 years ago
      the date is not upside down it looks as if theres under his chin and backside the word liberty is spread out to much not sure what they call that error and the words and date was stamped very well and theres an indention through his head also the colloring on head side is a little lighter but the tails side is perfect
    6. shandalar_rose, 8 years ago
      sorry doubling under chin and also looks like the other indentions cant remember what type of error that is
    7. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 8 years ago
      Shame the indention isn't in the back of the head ! You could have sold it to one of these TV producers for abnormal people.

      Not sure that it is true doubling, maybe struck through grease.

      Maybe somebody wasn't fast enough getting a finger out of the way / LOL !

      Too bad it has been cleaned - that always lowers the value by quite a bit.
      I don't know the value of this one, but never clean them.

      i never cleaned it that is how i recieved the penny
