Clara22 Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 I found this coin and I’ve figured out its one of the 2009 formative years Lincoln penny. It is flattened and larger than a normal penny but has a lifted/raised rim like you would normally expect, except that some of the words like United States are larger and backward with the others like on the reverse where it says in god we trust to be missing except for the very top of the letters which are right next the the rim. On the reverse a lot of the details are worn as well and you can see the inner metal (nickel? I don’t really know) in some parts. Let me know what you think happened to it, I’m very curious.

Corina Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 something called post mint damage which means this was done after the coin left the mint it's not worth anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
