1979 Lincoln Penny (Earlobe Error)

#1 Unread post by hakuna-matata21 »

1979 Lincoln Penny with a mark by Lincolns earlobe. I can take better pictures. But I'm trying to show the definition the best way I can to show that this error goes with the coin and DOES not look like, or feel like it might have beeb made by anyone or been in any type of position where it could have been indented in. If that makes sense. (I'm a blonde, been collecting for years, just new to the terms I guess haha)
