    Struck through die cap - Take a Penny tray

    I hope you all have been doing well! I just wanted to share this with you all. I was lucky enough to save this guy from my local gas station take-a-penny tray. I think it is a 1994. It’s in really nice condition, and is probably the best example I have. It’s hard to believe it was still floating around in the wild. Thanks for looking!

    That's awesome. I'm always rooting through the penny tray at the places I frequent.

    Excellent find Jay.
    All those "Error" sellers on eBay would probably pass right by this one. LOL

    Me too!

    But now my grandkids won't let me near their piggy banks.
    They never see me add anything, they're only watching when I'm rooting through them!!!!

    Great eye and pick up. Same as you Jay, my eyes are always looking into the trays of pennys the store clerks have by the register. I also always check the reject trays at the stores when I’m checking out. The coin stars also throw back some nice errors at times.
