4 1998 WAM and 1 2000 WAM from 8 east coast boxes. 6 were all zinc, so that hiked the rate a little.

See the line? It's a raised surface, the only indention is the dimple in between his eye and the line.

I only see one abnormality on the coin, and I put a line over your previous picture where it is.

I will post it on the CCF for you, there are people over there who know a lot more that I do about this kind of stuff.

Thank's for taking the time to post that, seems to be a die crack/die chip.

[quote="TheJonasCollegeFund"]My last $50 bag gave me this interesting one.


I had hand-sorted a fair number of coins before moving to machine sorting, and had never seen one of these. I do visually scan my input and output streams, and found one of these by accident about a month ago. They must be more common than I realized, but I don't recall ever seeing one before in the normal course of life. Interesting to think about how many more pennies we run through by even just a little sorting, versus the norm. I'm sure I've looked at 10x the pennies in the past year than in the rest of my life combined.

I just noticed the L on the penny is quite odd as well, you think thats just another die chip?

Got this struck thru capped die in the last box I did. Any ideas what these go for? I seen price ranges from $15-$100 on eBay. Also, got my first 1998 and 200 wide AMs last month.
