Found this guy earlier today. I thought it was pretty neat and figured I'd share.
Also found this 1954 Lincoln cent with a cud in Liberty and a weird S.
Then this guy.. I never knew until today.. I really hope you can see the brockage.
First issue is the obvious filled 9. On the reverse, T in Cent has a cud at the base. The IT as shown is thin in UNITED, with a cud on that T, too. I turned the coin and discovered a bit of brockage. You can see Lincoln through the reverse when you turn it in the light. Neat!
...really hope you guys and gals can see!

Just for clarification, die chips are not cuds.
A cud has to involve the edge of the die face,
where it manifests itself as a blob of metal where
the Die piece broke off, and the metal flows into
the area where there is no die metal.

Ohhhh...! That makes cents now
Funny how you can read a bunch and not get it and someone pumps out a few sentences and it clicks. Thanks 
Neat little errors though huh? I think they're cool. I wish you guys and ladies could see Lincoln through the last cent pictured.
In that picture, I cannot see what you refer to (Lincoln)....Are you saying it is a clashed die? Or something else?

Darn, I guess you guys can't see him =(
I am not sure if it's brockage or a thin planchet, but you can make out his shirt and surrounding areas of his head through the back of the last wheat posted.
This happened on a 60-D I had. You can see the memorial outlines through the front but won't photograph at all. I've tried reflecting yellow blue and magenta.
Can you weigh the coin?.

Maybe this picture helps.. I hate this I can see it when I hold it but you guys can't see his head in USA or coat at One Cent pointing towards 11:00 and 1:00.
It's a joke of a picture since you likely can't see. I tried reflecting navy blue off of white this time.
