Just a couple of questions...
Has anyone seen any of the newer pennies or any pennies minted over a wheat penny?
Also has anybody found a certain year has contained several pennies minted over Canadian pennies? Wish I could provide pic's but the angle and lighting g is just to finicky.
Can anyone recommend a place to send them to be verified as to the exact error?
TIA
Brooke

Are the lighter images or devices in reverse or recessed into the coin? My first inclination is to think of two coins compressed together by a vise or some other means.

The lighter image looks as though they are coming through the penny image as though the penny image was laid over the old coin and you can make out the faint design of the leaves

We need images of the coin to see what you're seeing.
