Hello All,
Here are 2 1956 D mintmark errors.
http://www.lincolncentforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=107276&stc=1http://www.lincolncentforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=107275&stc=1


Are these the shadow D above D or is this a different error?
As usual: are these common? collector interest? value?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Twisted

Those are called re-punched mintmarks (RPM). They carry some premium and in rarer (earlier) coins some quite significant premiums. Your coins, though RPMs, carry insignificant premiums, especially in the condition that they are.
