No Date Lincoln Memorial Cent

Found This while searching bank rolls. I first thought it was altered, but after careful examination with 20D Nikon Mag. Lens it appears to be genuine. Thought I'd share.

Interesting. You should take it by a coin dealer or send it in for authentication.

I agree, take it to a coin dealer and see if it would be worth having authenticated.

Sweet cent. Definitely take it and have it authenticated. HH

Cool man, a coin stuck in time!

Is it a Wheat or a Memorial?

 

[Steeler Fan]

might be a filled die error. When grease or something else gets on the die and fills up the letters or design. When the coin is stamped. no impression is made on the coin. Not really worth much if it is a filled die error. Hope its something worth something :-)

Dear KoinPro:
? ? ?I was wondering how rare this is? Is there any value to it? It does not appear to have been altered. How can I make sure? Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

seems if it came from the mint that way, it would be worth a bit more than 2.50 or 3.00 dollars. but im not sure. keep on digging !!!

 

[northeast hunter]

did they tell you what year it was LOL

 

[ClonedSIM]

Got to agree with Ken here. The "filled-die" mis-strike coins don't have a lot of inherant value because they're a one-off, just one of their kind. Because of this, they're are tons if different varities each year but none that really interest collectors. But still, it's amazing to think that you're holding the only coin that has this particular error. I love to go through rolls and find strike-through and filled-die errors. Love it! Happy Hunting!

[Chester Copper Pot]

No date?? No (sense) cents?? One of a kind. Keep it.

 

[DiggerDude101]

Where do you get the thing that you put it in?

They are called "2x2 cardboard coin holders" Ask your local coin dealer or go on ebay
