Title: Waiting!!!
Post by: MattGold on May 05, 2013, 12:04:36 PM
I wish the post services ran on the weekend, bought a few pennies and I'm pretty sure I could see a 1924 penny with a filled 4. Hoping my eyes werent decieving me. I want it now now now...

I feel like a child waiting for xmas even though I don't think the coin is too special it's one that I don't have.

come on come on

Yeah there's some serious die clash on that penny.

Many of the pennies from the 20's have either a spur on the first leg of the second N or an impression of what looks to be the top of an 'N'. How would you describe this impression.?:idea:

Thanks Enworb, but I'm not too fussed. As long as I have a coin from each year I am happy. :)  I might have to have a closer look at it though, I'm sure I can see some doubling in the date, that I didn't notice before.

Just went to check it and it turns out that is an old picture. I have already updated it.

If I got the quotation marks right, your 1924 filled 4 is similar to the one I'm getting.

That's a nice looking colour on that 1924 Mark
