Thanks for all your incites for this coin. Just thought it was very interesting. Sorry for the poor-quality lighting. Thanks again.

I took some better close-up of the break. You can see it goes top to bottom also towards the outside, making a circle.

I found this interesting 1994 Lincoln in almost perfect condition. It has what I think is a die crack in his head. It starts at his collar and goes to the top of his head. Just would like the Pro's thoughts. I know it's difficult through pictures, but what do you think the grade may be on the coin. Thanks

The coin does have the raised rim as a normal penny would have. I came across this in a roll of pennies, so I don't have the other piece that may go with it. I really can't see how someone can keep the rim intact, take the inside out, and still have a contour towards the inside. I don't see any cut makes at all on it. It is a very interesting piece to say the least. A few of years ago I did find a two-sided nickel, but I could see where the laser had cut the edge. I still have it of course.😊 Thanks for the video, very interesting. In the video I noticed when he cut out the face there are round marks left on the inside from the knife cut. On my coin, the lines are fine and only horizontal, not touching the rim. Is it still possible cut the insde out like this?

Thank you Greenstang, always value your opinion

I came across this one in a roll from a bank. I believe it may be a slug but before I discard it, I wanted to run it by the experts. I did put a magnet on it and it is steel or zinc. I looked into how the process works in the mint and don't see how one side could be blank. Love your thoughts on it. Thank you ahead of time.

Thank you GBrad for that info I have Guardhouse UPVC would they be the same as the SAFLIP ? I also have the do it yourself slabs, just as good also? I don't want to ruin the coin by doing something that cause a problem with it. Thanks again.

Thanks JJK, I'll take your advise and I'll leave my money in my wallet then. You know "a penny save is a penny earned" 😀

Thanks JKK, I've already put it in a holder to protect it. Do you think I should send it in to be graded and so it's in a sealed capsule?

Thank you all for your incite to this coin. It helps us rookies with all the information you share. I'll put this one away and maybe one day it may be worth something to someone, who knows maybe even sooner. Thanks again

Thanks for all of you input with this one. I'm certainly going top hang on to it. By the sounds of it, in a few years it may be worth something to someone. Maybe sooner, who knows. Thanks again It's fun finding something different for sure.

I'm no pro but I think that if you look closely at the pictures you can definitely see the etching lines from the die on the obverse. There's isn't anything that even remotely suggests gluing two coins together.

Conder101, thanks for that knowledge, it's very informative I will definitely stow it away

Thanks Fenntucky Mike, I'll stick it in a holder for later years

Thanks I think it's unusual, isn't it? I think I had better save this one.

Found this one in a new roll and was wondering if it was offset enough to have interest and or value. I didn't think that the newer coins could no longer be offset like this. seeing this I guess I must be wrong. any thoughts on it? Thanks in advance

Thanks buddy, I wasn't too sure about it so I thought I'd ask the experts before discarding.

Couple more pictures.

I can't tell what's going on with this one. At first glance I just thought damage on the date. Looking further, I think although there is damage, there is something else going on. Can anyone help me with a thought? I put another 38 next to it to compare. The line in the middle of the eight is going Northwest when in fact it should be East West. Any thoughts would be very helpful. Thank you in advanced.

Thanks for that information I just learned something new. That's what I like about this site, everyone is so helpful. It also saves the newbies quite a bit of money by not having coins sent in to be graded. great job guys!

Here's a closer look at the mint mark

I'd like to know from the experts if I'm seeing a double in the mint mark or not. I do know that there is machine doubling going on under the mint mark but I also think I see doubling in the D. Am I correct or just looking too deeply? Thank you in advance for all of you incites. I tried to enlarge the image in order to see what I think I see better.

Thanks Ronnie, I do hope you're right at 53. I'll let everyone know what grade it is when I get it back .

Thanks Just Bob, You just never know when you open up a roll what you're going to find.

Thank you for your thoughts Fenntucky Mike. I was thinking along the same line as you. Even if it is AU I thought it is worth it to confirm it.
