NewEra Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 (edited) Good morning, Kings and Queens. I am confused about the date on this coin. I have the "Red Book" to reference, but I need to know the correct date. Right? Thanks in advance. *Newbie Quote of the Day* "You don't have to be great to start but you have to start to be great."

Greenstang Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 No mystery, it is a 1950 with damage to the date. J P M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J P M Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 Why do you need the correct date for a cent that is damaged and worn out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More completely, it is a 1950-D cent with damage to its obverse. Our OP needs to explain what’s unclear. NewEra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coinbuf Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 Agreed just a damaged 1950 cent. NewEra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powermad5000 Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 I have a question as you did not post a photo of the reverse of this cent. To be sure of the date, does the reverse have the wheat ears on it or does it have the Lincoln Memorial on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
