Hussulo Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Very interesting. "The 1943 bronze Lincoln cent really transcends a wrong planchet error," So there can't be many about. An error coin really but one which cent collectors would love to add to their collection I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where was it? I would have drooled over it had I seen it. And what a great story of the man and his circulation collection. Tanks for sharing!

LostDutchman Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I just happened to notice it by itself in one of the cases towards the value section... stopped and looked at it for a bit... cool piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, so it wasn't featured in the exhibits or anything? K. glad I didn't miss something obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just carl Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Nice story. I've got seveal of them. Unfortunately all mine are attracted to a magnet. But sure look real. I wonder how many are really out there. Same with the other odd balls like the 44 Steel Cent, the 74 Aluminum, the 59 wheat back, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
