You should go on cuds on coins.com There are plenty of examples of where the dies failed and yes a bunch with catastrophic failure. I understand they have been a lot of coins faked. I think now people are dismissing actual mint errors because of it. But for some one to say they can't understand how damage could happen at the mint needs to look a known errors from catastrophic dioe failure, caped coins, split dies and many more.

This is a catastrophic die failure. Now stop trying to tell me that you just don't know how damage could happen at the mint. Go to cups on coins Web Site and you will see many examples of coins like this.

This is where it affected his head on the obverce side.

Here is why the letting is not as pronounced in the middle of the reverse it is a catastrophic die failure. It can and does happen more often than you think. People really should look at more already graded error coins.

If you will look up the thread I have already did that with someone who first posted it. Maybe you should read a little of the thread before you judge to much.

Now you probably have not look at the pictures very well. The is a 1957D where they were many die cracked coins leading up to it. You can see that the coin has obvious strike throughs on the reverse. You can see where the die fell apart and it made an error coin. What did you think would happen to a coin being struck with thousands of pounds and the die came apart?

My post never said this was a mint error. Now for you guys that know about the 1975D die failure you will be able to see that this one is probably the last die error it made.

No that's not the mjnt error. I just found that one while I was going through my change. I just thought it was nice even though it is in bad shape it was one of the first lincoln pennies ever struck. Can you imagine how many people held that penny over the last over 100 years? The mint error is a 1957D it is tore all to peaces on the back.

I'm sure they are in some kind of regular preventative mattanance because they are under extreme pressure while operating. That still doesn't mean they don't fail. Or we would not have error like die cracks and such would we?

Stick you finger in it I dare you. That little old peace of metal would not have a chance against those dies and you know it. They have worse errors than that when a did fails. Like I said they usually have very good quality control.

I don't know I'm feeling kinda funny I might just send two.
