Lot Title: 1977 Lincoln cent struck on a dime planchet, NGC MS-65
Lot Number: 477
Description: NGC lists the weight as 2.3 grams, which precisely matches up to the standard weight for a "sandwich" dime of the era, hence the inevitable conclusion that a dime planchet erroneously received the strike intended for a 1977 cent. It was an unstruck planchet, hence some natural voids remain, including interesting distension off to the right. Lustrous and visually impactful, for sure.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
