Description
Multiple-Struck, Bonded Pair, Die Cap 1999 Cent
MS65 Red and Brown
1999 Lincoln Memorial Cent--Multi-Struck Bonded Pair--MS65 Red
and Brown NGC. A remarkable error that combines two planchets
and multiple strikes. A cent clung to the obverse die after its
initial, normal strike. It struck against a series of planchets,
distorting the Memorial reverse, and partly wrapping the obverse
around the obverse die. Eventually, the die cap dislodged, but
failed to eject, and was struck again, 85% off center toward 7
o'clock, at 11 o'clock relative to the die cap. This strike is
uniface obverse, with a newly fed planchet blocking the reverse
die. The die cap again failed to eject, and was struck yet again,
this time 60% off center toward 7 o'clock, at 4:30 relative to the
die cap. This strike fused the die cap with a newly fed planchet.
