While interesting it boils down to a die break, and doesn’t add much value if any. Interestingly there are over 1500 known “bie” errors on cents mostly occurring in the 1950s. Cool to look at but not value additive. Certainly not worth error attribution fees. 

Yes, but I did not know that just starting.  Its one thing to find that this is not a value add - but when the base grading is even torn down to nothing too its really sad. Not sure what you can rely on.  Pay extra, you're stupid.  Trust a slab grade you're an insufficiently_thoughtful_person.  Makes we wanna fire up the smelter somedays.

But the real question is value?

How do you determine that with the Grade the BIE is obvious enough to anyone

Not a US penny specialist, but most third party graders expect you to list the variety you have and PAY for their documenting the variety. Check PCGS and NGC pricing list for attribution services.

I did pay for it

The BIE is a variety I think grading companies don’t bother listing it on slab cause it’s common variety on Lincoln wheat cent through the years 

I see.  

Do you know how or where I can find values for these?

I see them on the web and they saeem to be abler to significantly affect pricing.

Hi

Thanks in advance for help and comments.

I had PCGS grade this penny and I assumed the attribute grading service would have included the error condition for the coin.  My bad.

This is nicely graded coin and the BIE error should add value, although I can't get a handle on how much it ill add.

Can anyone educate me so I can get a better value?  Tell me the value and how to check?  Anything?

Kevin

Thanks 

The centers are both convex though it appears to me.  I'm gonna spend the grading fee.  Figure my YFI coins upside can pay for that this month:)  I'll post results when they return...

Here is a double denomination that is the shape I am seeing - obviously if you could see it like this it would be a no brainer.

What I am trying to do is show that the coin looks like it was struck on anther coin

It is not raised near the rim, rather it rises up which the last 2 original pixs show

There is a circular mass raised below the penny

 attached more pix

The final one is very telling on how the copper seems stretched - it undulates and the steps are warped in the middle of the coin

Hi

Still running into new things daily.Can anyone help me with what I have?

It looks like my penny ate someone lsses...

Added:  This coin weights 3.00 grams.

I'd like an opinion on this coin please.

I have been wrong mostly.  Is this a double error coin?

The proof reverse on a business strike?  Is that my issue?  Proof strike.  Darn.  So close.

This is why I ask

1999 1c Wide AM Ty-2 (Proof Style Reverse) This is the RARE ONE!  Same variety type as described for the 1998 above (and 2000 below). MMNS graded MS-64 RB (in my opinion this is an AU) $175.00.  The following are from original brilliant uncirculated rolls: MS64/++ RD $295.00, MS65 RD $350.00, MS66 RD $550.00

From Ken Potter;s Error Coin Website

So, I got my penny back graded nicely

Did they miss the fact that this is a Wide AM or what.  I can't find it to price it.

Thank you in advance

What are you thinking/hoping it will say on the slab, if it isn't "just another proof"? I'm curious.

I'm sure you are right. so that will be my basis. 

its included in a submission with a couple other error coins including a 1960 Franklin PR6X FBL with reverse hub doubling. same basis situation. just another proof too

Thanks for the comments   I will post the slab pic when I get it

I humbly disagree, its not just another proof  Here a nice proof CAM with it   its more mirror finish

Off to grade tomorrow.

Where I got it?  Indiana    A dealer collection pillaged by family  It sat for 11 years  Now its mine and I am liquidating many coins  he collected error coins and interesting things.

onno, its more than lighting 

I had 2 to 10 pennies out of the same coins just grade ms-68 ANACS.  this pales them by

the likelihood is gold plating I'm thinking now

would the mint do this?  I'd say the strike is incredible which makes it seem interesting at least

It is a uniform and very mirror like surface  the reverse is easier to see

the Lincoln obverse is so high relief it picks up any color

I have never seen anything like this

Super struck high relief and so brilliant the pix are impossible to take

anyone?

Can't tell authenticity, but reckon it an unlikely candidate to fake. Details look about EF, though there's unfortunate scratching. I can't tell if there is residual mint luster, but if there is, that'd knock it down to what I call VF-45.

Thank. you.  I've got $10 in it. nice return anyway

sorry

I updated pix

I don't think there is much value there, is there something you see that I am missing?

 

no.  no point there sorry. 

dropped wrong image my bad

Should you always grade your Lincoln cent rarities and error coins7ii?

my example for the q?

Can I get a little help making sure this is real  and if so a hint on grade?
