PCGS (1959-1982) Lincoln cent late stage die cap strike. The brockage shows well on the obverse. Really, a mid-stage in our opinion.    MS63 Brown 

PCGS 1993 Lincoln cent with a huge cud reverse. Cuds occur when a portion of the die breaks away due to stresses in the die, leaving a "void" which is filled by the planchet when the coin is struck.   MS65 Red with lustrous surfaces. Minor speck…

NGC 1964-D Lincoln cent 30% double curved clipped. Superb grade.   MS66 lustrous red. 

NGC 1955 Lincoln wheat cent struck on a silver dime planchet, and with a weight of 2.5 grams. The coin is silver, and is struck on the planchet intended for striking into a Roosevelt dime.  A rare date/mint for cent on dime planchets, with few k…

Split planchet after strike, with the reverse side showing the design, and the split side obverse. AU50

Uncentered broadstruck.  MS63 Red/Brown. Nice eye-appeal.

PCGS 1978 Lincoln cent struck on clad 10c planchet. The coin is struck on the clad planchet intended for a Roosevelt dime, and has a slightly smaller diameter, and is also the wrong metal, being "clad" metal.    A common date for cents on d…

NGC 1c Lincoln Memorial cent foldover strike. The coin has a dramatic "loop" in the planchet, from where the planchet folded over (like folding a piece of bread), and formed a foldover strike.  This error type is generally scarce, with a rough..…

NGC 1934 Lincoln wheat cent struck 15% off-center. The coin is struck off-center at K-10. A somewhat scarcer off-center.   MS63 Brown with lustrous surfaces.
