How is this error possible? 😳


It looks like that the motto was struck at the wrong location, a second time . . . (Die Rotation placement Error? That is how I named it, Just my 2 cents there . . . )

This is not an Error.

This motto impression was from a alternate Lincoln Cent, pressed into the rim of this cent.

Hey, just indented. Thank you Paul, I can see how its not an error now. It would have been nice if it was raised. But, one day we'll get that one we've always been looking for. Just never knew it till we saw it. I appreciate all your responses. Yall, Have a great rest of your week!

Not if you own a bench vice its not. This happens a lot and many are posted on forums trying to find out what they are. The term "vice coin" is often used although its impossible to tell if it was another way of making the impression.
