Hi,

My 1973 D lincoln cent might be a error coin. I am new at coin collection. The condition of this coin is in mint condition or below. On one side of this coin the color is red on the other side this coin is brown

Thanks,

Chris

    Sorry Chris, but that doesn't give us any information with which to help you. You will need to get a good picture and post it. Alternatively, send the coin to a TPG or have your dealer render an opinion.

    That could simply mean that it laid flat for an extended period ot time and the side that wasn't exposed remained red. It could also mean that the red side is cleaned.

    lay a dark brown cent in a puddle of ketchup...you'll see what russ means in about 5 minutes.

    this happens more than you'd believe!

    Or, he could just burn some money. It'd have the same effect and be faster.
