Please take a look at this penny 0

[Beginner 76]

I never seen this before. Is there any one knows what happened with the letter B?? Is this an error? Thanks guys.

There may have been some grease or other debris partially filling the B cavity in the die. It can also be caused by die erosion, which sometimes appears on zinc cents in a ring pattern. Note that numeral 8, which is about the same distance from the rim as the B, shows similar weakness.

Thanks. There is too much to learn about penny but also interesting

Isn't this the same coin you asked about last Sunday on the Newbie Forum or did you not like the answer.
