    I dont think thats an error.
    Life is not about greatness but on the impact of good onto others. It is a matter of how much one shines. Explains why I like shiny coins.

      That is an ex-encased coin. It was a "lucky cent" someone put in a holder called a bezel and worn as "jewelry." It got removed and put back into circulation. It is not a mint error. It was damaged after the mint. Sorry, but welcome to the LCR!!

      From one Will to another. And thank you for your service.

        Welcome to the forum. I agree that it is a coin altered outside the mint.
        Enjoy your stay, and thank you for your service.

            These ex-encased cents get everyone once. They sure look like a variety of errors, but alas, they are not. Keep up the hunt, the next one might be fantastic.

              These guys would really enjoy what you shared on the CONECA forum yesterday. If you aren't too busy post it here.
