Offered for sale is a fascinating 1920 Lincoln Wheat Cent featuring a notable date anomaly, where the “0” in the year appears extremely weak or missing. This unusual characteristic is consistent with a strike-related error, potentially caused by a filled die, grease-filled die, or incomplete strike at the mint.
The coin is a circulated business strike composed of copper, displaying a natural brown patina developed over time. Both obverse and reverse details remain visible, including Lincoln’s portrait and the classic wheat ears reverse design.
**The date reads “192·” with the final digit showing little to no definition, making this an eye-catching and conversation-worthy piece for any error coin enthusiast.**
