    Sorry bit don’t see any die cracks. A die crack would be raised.

    Definitely damaged. The rims have taken hits that have flattened them.  
    This could not have happened during the striking of the coin.  
    Worth it’s weight in silver.

    Your right, it is a Small Date 1982D zincoin.
    Pretty common though as there were millions minted.

    Greenstang got a reaction from EagleRJO in 1970 S small date and 1958 D error.   
    I see no error on the 1958 D. The mint marks were hand punched into the working die so the
    location can be anywhere below the date and to the right of the Lincoln’s coat. Yours are normal.

    Corrosion, copper turns green when exposed to certain elements.  
    As suggested, try the magnet test to be sure.

    Greenstang got a reaction from bobbyboshay in My Question is this 1988 looks proof like ?   
    Not a PL, just an uncirculated cent.

    Greenstang got a reaction from bobbyboshay in 1988 Wide AM   
    This is the Registry Forum, I have asked that it be moved to the proper forum.
    Do you have a question on your Lincoln cent? There was no Wide or Close AM in 1988, they are all the same.  
    It is a nice looking cent though.

    Greenstang got a reaction from SilverGary in My only British coin. Is it valuable as Google claims?   
    I can’t see how a coin that had over 1 1/2 BILLION struck can be valuable. 
    Perhaps because it was the first decimalized Colin issued in 1971, people think it is valuable.  
    I do see them listed for ridiculous prices but it is what they sold for that counts, not the asking price.  
    The listed price for a 1971 Uncirculated penny is about a dollar and about 20 cents for a circulated one.

    You cannot have a DDO on the rim, it has to be on part of the design.

    Welcome to the Chat Board
    Do not believe everything you see on You Tube concerning coins. What you have is common marks   
    made by a coin wrapping machine. As JPM stated, these  will appear on the end coins of a roll. 
    No extra value and worth 25 cents.

    Greenstang got a reaction from Sandon in 1921 Morgan silver dollar , "extremely" rare error, missing C in the word AMERICA!   
    Welcome to the NGC chat board.
    Please follow the instructions for posting a coin for sale posted under “Coin Marketplace Guidlines”.  
    You supply no information whatsoever.  
    Also the missing C appears to be a grease filled die which is not extremely rare.
