Was flipping through TV channels earlier and caught a glimpse of a particular "The Simpsons" episode. In the episode, Bart (the kid) and Homer (the low-IQ father) pick up coin collecting as a hobby. They go to auctions, coin shows, etc to complete their set, but they are missing 1 particular cent. It is the 1917 "Kissing Lincolns" key date. They somehow trick someone into giving them the cent by asking for change for a quarter and complete their set. Description:
"The inverted double struck penny, or "kissing lincolns", was mistakenly minted in December of 1917, where a brief glimpse of a woman's ankle caused rioting for 3 days."
It doesn't actually exist, and I don't really know if it would even be possible to have such an error.
