On May 22 of this year I was searching through my change at the end of the day and found a 1956 wheat cent, which was ok they are worth about 2¢ in that condition.
I left the coin on my desk because I was too busy to catalog my newest find. Then a few days later I noticed some crud on the coin then I looked closer and saw it was actually excess copper between the B and E in LIBERTY.
Immediately I recognized it was a "BIE" error and sure enough I got my error book out and there it was as clear as day.
Here's this coin stats...
II-F-4 BIE Die Variety (W) = a die break or crack between the B and the E.
Fairly common in the years 1955-1958 and value at $1.00 to $20.00.
I figure due to all the green spots and circulation wear that mine is closer to $1.00.
For a while BIE pennies became very popular and the BIE Guild was formed. Soon so many of these errors were found that the value went down and the collectors stopped tracking these coins. The BIE Guild dissolved and now unless the coin is proof or in excellent shape the premium for this error is low.
Here is a better picture of this type of error from LeeG(an expert collector) he also found a 1956 BIE but as you see in a higher grade.
Do you have an error penny and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.

«Oldest ‹Older 1001 – 1200 of 1459 Newer› Newest»1944 wheat penny that is very nice shape on front but on back it is smooth with nothing on it. The coin is not as thick as most of the other wheat penny.
This is damage, it is not possible to press a coin that has a smooth side.
I have seen this before it was once done by a jeweler and put into a pendant.
Sorry, no extra value.

I have a 1988 nickle that has a indention on both sides in the same spot of were the rim should be which has also cut off the bottom of the ATE in STATES. I was wondering if you could tell me anything about this
Ok so i have a 1960 penny that the L on LIBERTY is almost cut off by the rim. and the 9 in 1960 has the top circle filled in and it has a bump to it. Is there anything you could tell me?
1988 nickle that has a indention on both sides in the same spot of were the rim should be which has also cut off the bottom of the ATE in STATES.
Sounds like a Clip, that is where the coin is cut wrong but still gets pressed.
This is minor about $2.00 but a lot depends on eye appeal having a piece of the design missing is good but may still be too minor.

This is a Die Break error, the break may have also caused the coin to be be off-center.
It is common and does not have any extra value.
Hi, we have a penny which appears that the insides were not struck. Same size as a penny and there is an edge around it. Thoughts?

Minor Off-Center error, no extra value.
It must be 15% off-center or cut off the design to have any value.

That said it should be weighed in case.
It can also be an error called Improperly Annealed but only an expert can tell in hand.
I have a penny with no date on the front as the front is virtually blank. It looks like it may have been very slightly stamped, as you can see some VERY slight marks, but nothing at all distinguishable (virtually blank), and the back looks double stamped, with one stamp being crooked, showing the Lincoln Memorial crooked embossed over a straighter stamp of it. Any value?

It could be a double struck cent, about $25.00 but it has to be examined in hand.
There are other ways to fake this type of error so I am cautious.
hi i have a 1974 D which is an unuasually burgandy dark browny color which has what looks like an extention off his chin going in the direction of the date also have an 1985 with bright copper spots, also a 1976 quarter which has the D double printed and its unusually deep, just was wondering what if anything they are worth, thanks for your time

--Possible Doubled die or Repunched Mintmark, about $5.00.
thanks for the awnser but the one with the peice coming from the chin looks like another print of his ear does that make any difference 1974 D one cent, i have a photo if needed?

Hi, I have an entire collection of wheat pennies that includes every single year minted from 1909 to 1958. All mints are represented, and even the famous 1909 s-vdb is included. I am only missing the 1922 NO D. What do you think this collection may be worth? They are all in XF to AU condition

Hello, iv recently started lookin for error coins, and I won't lie there fascinating! I went through my coin jar and sadly didn't find any lol but I noticed on one penny iv got is missing the E in E• Pluribus• Unium.... And the letters above it and the corner of the memorial are softer than the rest of the lettering on the coin... It might be caused by the stamp being worn down at one point on it or idk but it's a 1979 and there is no sign of the letters being worn down... If you have any helpful info it would be welcome

Could be a worn die, a slight die adjustment, or most like;;y struck through grease error.
Either way no extra value, it is very common.
Hi! I found a 1975 penny. Lincoln and the monument are upside down from each other. If one is facing upside the other isn't. It looks like a brand new penny though.

That sounds normal. No extra value.
U.S. coins have coin alignment.
Meaning when Lincoln is facing up and you flip the coin left or right the back is upside down.
i have a 1961 penny that looks way to shiny and feels to light to be real. it is metal and had no letter stamp either below or above the date on the penny?? is it real??

Weigh it to make sure.
Hi I have never really collected coins before but today I got a wheat penny 1956 d and it seems to be unique. Lincoln is protruding very high from the coin and the wheat side has an indenture in the shape of Lincoln's head. Also the l on liberty is almost cutoff. The last oddity it has as extra line on the edge slightly above liberty. Any ideas I have compared to other wheat coins and it almost seems concave in the middle on the Lincoln side not flat like the others.

Someone smashed two cents together. No extra value.
If you think it may be something else take good pictures and share it online using a free photo site or take it to a few dealers.

I have an undated lincoln penny with a large die break over where the date should be..I can only see the 1 but not the other three numbers in the date..on the opposite side where this die break is the letter S at the end of States is missing as well as the letters AMER in the word America is missing because of this error..i have found only one such example as my penny but it has no numbers in the date and was selling on Ebay for about $135.00. i was just wondering if you had any idea where i could find information about the value of this coin..an official site of sorts or maybe you could shed some light on the value of this penny for me.. Thank you in advance...sincerely, confused new collector Karen.
I have an undated lincoln penny with a large die break over where the date should be..
There is no official site or value for this type.
$135 is a false value, eBay scam.
Average no date Die Break/Cud error is $5.00.
High grades will fetch more also 3.11 grams will be more.
Hi i have a 1983 d penny with double rimming which i know isnt worth much. The part that is crazy is the penny is almost the size of a quarter and everything is clearly stretched out. It is deffenitly not done by any tools because even though it is stretched everything front and back is still very detailed as it should be and there is what looks to be the front stamped on the back and viseversa but it very hard to see. it is very dirty as it was in a can with tons of other pennys in the trunk of a car im restoring and the can was filled with water. I know your not suppose to clean them but i think it is needing a very light cleaning to get some of the debris off it, almost like oxidation if u can say that. Just want to know if its worth anything. You can email me if u would like pics MrSmooth76@live.com
The part that is crazy is the penny is almost the size of a quarter and everything is clearly stretched out.
Just a Elongated cent there are many ways of making these.
No extra value and so it can be cleaned.

thanks
my penny has the printing on it of a penny but it is shrunk into the size of a dime, and the rim is thicker than what a normal dime looks like,
This is damaged, making a coin smaller and thicker is known as spooning and can be done easily.
Sorry no extra value.
Hi, I have a 1962 penny with the back of it printed upside down. What is it worth?
1962 penny with the back of it printed upside down.
If you mean a U.S. cent that when Lincoln is right side up and you turn the coin over left or right and the back is upside-down this is normal.
Hi, I have a 1973 penny with a raised rim, it's actually very visible and sharp. Any help would be grateful.

The Die Break has no extra value about $0.03 very common.
The 1969 does not look Doubled Die just worn, no extra value unless you can prove it is Doubled.
that sucks thanks for the info tho a great help as always :)

"Sounds like a Die Clash error, no extra value."
Thanks for the info. I looked into Die Clash errors, it seems that when they happen they are typically faint, and the image is positioned correctly (ie the Lincoln Memorial would show up horizontally across Lincoln's face)
In the coin I found neither is the case, both images are very visable, and the memorial is almost perfectly aligned up/down with Lincoln's head.
Does that change anything, or do you think this is still a die clash error?
Does that change anything, or do you think this is still a die clash error?
Die Clash errors can be very strong and be aligned in every position.
That said it can be a Flip Over Double Strike which is very rare.
Still in circulated about $100.00 but it can only be verified in hand unless you have great camera skills.

Hello, I have a couple of Pennies that I think are error coins, one is a 1997, Lincoln cent, on lincolns shoulder is a bubble that is raised, this bubble is on the front and the back of the coin. Also I have a 2007 lincoln cent that is darkly colored, like it had maybe been in a fire, but different, and it is bigger around than a penny about the same size as a nickel but not as thick as a nickel but thicker than a penny. Any information on whether these are damaged or error coins?

1950-s wheat penny, at first glance looks like d over s,second glance says broken s in the die. middle of the s is three times wider than the curved parts of the s.
As far as I know there are no D/S or S/D Doubling for this year.
The S was made differently but I suspect damage or a die break error, no extra value.
If still not convinced place a good image online somewhere and copy & paste the link here.

Looks just like a Die Break, no extra value.
I have a 1944 wheat penny with a ring of bumps around the coin just inside the "IN GOD WE TRUST" on the front of the coin. The bumps do not look like something that could have been from normal wear and tear. They look like they are raised as much as the date is and one of the marks even makes the first 4 look weird. What is this?

Possible Die Breaks, but likely just damage.
Either way no extra value.
I have a 1999 no mint mark penny it looks like A Proof coin but i took it to a coin shop and the guy said it wasn't its really thick with sharp edges and its thicker then most pennies. the 1999 is almost missing the last nine and some of the nine before it is missing. Also the I & B in liberty is almost gone. The L looked like it was gone but when I looked closer its there but it looks like a very light L, its almost like a shadow. The B is almost like the L but you can see the B its like it wasn't stamped all the way. Do you know what this is worth? Also what type of Error is this or is it an actual proof coin?
1999 no mint mark penny it looks like A Proof coin but...
From everything you describe it sound like a Struck Through Grease error.
Something clogged the die when it was stamped making it uneven and giving it a thickness and missing letters.
It probably was just cleaned giving it a polished look but leaving behind grease.
No extra value.
Thank for the reply I have some more coins. A 1970 S which looks like S over D- the left side opening on the S is close by a line which is clearly part of the stamp but botttom of S looks like its shaped like a D. Whats the value of something like this and where would be a good place to get it actually put in a case, appraised right & get it authenticated? I also have a 1961 D which looks to have a backwards L or a stamped L the right way and one backwards. Ever see or hear of anything like this? Whats the value and would it be worth holding on to. Thank you very much for your time.
1970 S which looks like S over D
--As far as I know this type of error does not exist. It is probably a Die Break, no extra value.
That said PCGS is a great place to authenticate it would cost about $100 to grade. At the end it may bring $50 in low circulated grade and rapidly rise from there.

Possible Die Break if real also no extra value.
What about a 1969 S Double Die- doubling in date liberty and in god we trust. I have looked at other pictues online and it looks very similar but Its hard to tell on my coin unless I magnify it. If mine was strong i'm pretty sure there is doubling cause when i'm just looking at the coin if i move it while looking at it it looks like there is a shadow on every letter and number.
1969 S Double Die- doubling in date liberty and in god we trust...shadow on every letter and number.
This sounds more like Machine Doubling and not true Doubling.
There are just two known varieties for the 1969-S cent one is major but the other is minor just in the date.
Unless you can get great shots or have it looked by a dealer in hand. I am leaning towards no value strike doubling.
I recently came across a penny that is blank but you can barely make out the markings on both sides. I noticed it after breaking a roll of pennies for change.
Thank you!

That said it should be weighed and kept aside. A Die Adjustment Strike also leaves a weak coin and can be worth a few dollars.
None of these are rare but at least you noticed.
I have a 1975 penny with a small slice cut from the rim, as though it had been stamped twice. It is missing part of the word America on the reverse side due to this cut. Is this error common?

Sounds like a Clipped Cent in circulated about $1.00.
That said part of what you are describing does not sound right, if you can out a picture online and link it here that would help.
I have a 2001 D penny that is extra dark and slightly bowed(?)....kinda like a bowl shape...any clue to what this might be? its bossible that the darkness is just wear, too...

I have a penny I found in a roll of pennies. It only has half of it there. The "one cent" And "United States of America" Side is there, but it is hollow and does not have any filler and is missing the other side completely. No date as that side of the coin is missing. Any ideas? :)

1978 penny that has been stamped normal and then flipped over and stamped again
A True Double Struck cent would be about $300.00
That said it should be very warped and oddly shaped.
If not I suspect another type of error called Die Clash with little to no extra value.
its not warped at all. pretty much perfect stamp on both sides just not deep picture. but you can clearly see both imprints. any advice where i should sell it?? ebay or an auction house??

I suspect this may not be a true double struck so eBay is your best bet.
If you have it certified by PCGS or something then Heritage Auctions may be a better choice.
Good pictures will help both in identifying and for sales.
thank you kind sir!!!

This type of error is not possible.
It is either a fake or altered.
No extra value.
Try and get good pictures of the coin and placing them online. That is the only way for others to see what you really have.

Sounds like bubbling caused by dirt and has no extra value. The doubling does not sound true.
My grandfather is close to 80 years old and in the early 60's he bought wheat pennies for 50$ a bag. He had 3 grandchildren so he made rolls for them. In doing so he found this penny. It is a 1955 double die. Both the front and back are perfectly stamped right side up and upside down. It has been taken to many coin dealers and shows and many of them believe it came out of the mint and is the start of the 1955 double die error coins. Any insight into this coin would be greatly appreciated.

1917S Wheat I've owned for years. G-VG condition. Reverse has the wheat and e pluribus unum...center is completely blank.
I've always wondered about this.
1917S Wheat I've owned for years. G-VG condition. Reverse has the wheat and e pluribus unum...center is completely blank.
Probably damage, if the front does not have an equally large lump or empty space it is damage.
Could also be an error called Struck Through Grease but that does not add value.
About $0.05. You may want to put good pictures online in case it is something else.
hello, i have 1970 penny that has the zero off center/high close to the seven, xf condition.

Just damage, despite being metal the letter can easily be moved over time or with great pressure.
No extra value.

Have you ever heard of a 1970 mint sent with 2 philadelphia pennies and no s?
1970 mint sent with 2 philadelphia pennies and no s?
Could be a fake or resealed?
Errors in mint sets happen but many fakes exit this has to be verified.
If real the value is usually double about $35.00.
I have found an 1975 lincoln cent that has doubling on the 9,7 & the G. Since I cannot find any info on it curious of the rarity & the value. It is in fair condition. Worth grading? Value?
1975 lincoln cent that has doubling on the 9,7 & the G
Doubling on a 1975 cent is not known.
If minor about $3.00 in very-fine.
You might get a bump in value if it is the first known example but at most $25.00.
If high grade then it might be worth grading. In general doubling does not bring much extra value.
i have recently got myself a jewelers magnifying glass and was looking for rare pennies in my collection i mistakenly found a penny that wasn in my list of rare pennies it is a 1974 denver mint but the d that was struck on it is filled and similar to the 1968 filled eight anomaly i am very curious to now if i found a new rare penny. also if u could give me a roundabout on the price if ya can
pennies it is a 1974 denver mint but the d that was struck on it is filled and similar to the 1968 filled eight anomaly
Filled or Die Break cents are common and in no way rare.
They hold no extra value and are not considered collectible.
I have a 1995 D penny that appears to have been minted twice and dragged a bit in the press. Is this a common occurrence and what usually happens to these pennies?
1995 D penny that appears to have been minted twice and dragged a bit in the press
About $50.00 if circulated and not red.
These are rare and can go up to the hundreds depending on grade.
Thanks Man for the info. I didn't think it had any real value! All the best,
ngla
1969D penny clearly stamped Lincoln's head front and clearly stamped Lincoln memorial back and are correctly aligned, it also has the memorial stamped on the front on Lincoln's head and Lincoln's head is stamped on the back on the memorial, and these stamps also are correctly aligned with each other, it looks like it was stamped correctly then flipped over & rotated then stamped again. I've been told that would be impossible but that's how it looks to me.
1969D penny...it looks like it was stamped correctly then flipped over & rotated then stamped again.
A Double Stuck cent like you describe is possible and would be worth hundreds.
That said it is most likely a Die Clash error with no extra value.
If you can post some clear pictures on your blog that may help.
I have a 1960 D penny.I have no idea the condition
1960 D penny about $0.03 if circulated
There is a Small Date variety worth a little more but no much either.
Check here for comparison...

Any ideas on a 1959 D penny. The D looks smaller then any other penny. Also where it says "IN GOD WE TRUST" the print is noticably smaller. Thanks for your help.

They are not silver but Zinc coated steel.
They are common so none in less than perfect condition have any real value.

Thanks :) Also there were some with mercury dimes in some rolls. Should that roll/bundle be higher priced? Thanks again.

1962 d penny that is a bright silver color...
Possible error, you must weight it with a 0.01 gram scale.
If around ~3.11 grams it is a plated fake.
Any other weight is a possible valuable error.

Sounds like a Die Clash with no extra value, that said a picture would help.
Just use a free photo site then copy & paste the link of a clear image.
I have a 1971 uncirculated (still in its original package) penny with an error. In God We Trust is barely stamped. Can not read it it looks like the stamp lacked detail, Lincoln's face and coat are not fully visable. Anybody know about this and how can I get a value.

Just a weak strike or struck through grease either way no extra value.
Actually it may even lower the value since it is uncirculated.
