Coin and Paper Money Collecting/Possible misprinted penny

Expert: Cameron Kiefer - 3/29/2006


Question
I have a 2003 D penny that looks like they made a misprint on the date.  It looks like it says 2063 instead of 2003.  Are you aware of any misprints in that series?  Is it worth anything?

Answer
Hi Candy,

I have not heard of an error like that yet but it would be possible if there was some damage done to the die like a die chip or scratch making it look like a 6 instead of a 0.  If you have the capabilities of taking digital pictures and want to send one to me to see my e-mail is:  kieferscoins2000@yahoo.com.  The coin could either be damaged or a genuine mint error and the only way to know is by seeing the coin (or a good picture of it).
