    When a man who is honestly mistaken hears the truth, he will either quit being mistaken or cease to be honest....Abraham Lincoln

    Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it.....Mark Twain
  • Is this indicative of only one year? Or common with many years? This was a 1957

  • And also is it worth anything?

    It can occur on any year Lincoln. It is caused by a die chip.
    There are people who do collect them but they don’t hold much value.
    There are too many around. Don’t forget that once the die chips, every coin
    after that will show the chip until the die is retired.

    High grade examples seem to be selling for about $5 on eBay.

    As mentioned, not very valuable, and rather common, but legit error. But a good way to get started into the fascinating world of errors and varieties!
