This is a No Date Lincoln Memorial Cent with a Reverse Die Cap. This coin has been graded as a Mint Error and is a MS-65 Red.
The Reverse of this coin shows alot of Zinc and the coin has been struck to the size of a nickle.
If you look closely with this coin in hand and you tilt it in the light you can still make out the Bust of Lincoln and the outline of the Memorial Building on the Obverse.

This is a double struck flip over struck outside the collar.

Both coins are a beautiful example.

Hey Joe,
I did not know Squirrel mailed the key back to you.
Guess he isn't as loyal as I thought.
Nice coin Joe!

Yep! He snuck around you and it was all clean and sterile.:) However postage was due but I paid in loose change.
When I made my coin I forgot to complete one side of it because someone was coming back thru the front door of the mint.:LOL_Hair:

Here is one more error coin that had me fooled for a bit. However, Mike Diamond, James Wiles and Ken Potter all agree on what it is. Can you all take a guess?

It almost looks like trails, but the reverse gives it away. This coin has been struck through a late stage die cap with movement.

I think Jordie and Data have been monkeying around with the replocator again, BJ.
