Hello everyone. I am truly a new collector. I inherited lots of coins from my dad and father-in-law, I am investigative by nature and have immersed myself for the last 4 months in coins, coin history and the different types of errors. I recently discovered an odd penny which I have submitted for review in the Forum. It appears to have a colon after the word "In". I took it to a local certified coin appraiser and he suggested I join CONECA and submit for opinion. I am still eagerly awaiting the outcome of opinions. I have attached pictures for your enjoyment. Happy treasure hunting!

Holy crap that is wild! I wonder what happened...

[bethperry3083]

Not sure, they have ask me to perform a Q tip test for movement, there was none. Still awaiting their opinion. Exciting, no doubt.

I'm thinking they wanted to see if they moved in order to ascertain weather it was bubbling or not.

Correct. Yesterday, I was asked to send in so they could examine it using their tools.
