Seen a 1959 d penny? Am I missing something?

Look close at Lincolns head!

 

[dirtdigginlady]

Question mark on his face ?

Or the line that chops off the top of his head?

Or the fact that its blue?

I looked close at Lincoln's head - and he right. It's different! I haven't seen this before. If you look at another penny the top of Lincoln's is somewhat rounded. The 1959-D penny shown has a very distictive dip or V shape to his hair. That's got to be an error coin. Good catch Jog. John

It looks as though the die was cracked when it got stamped or blank was folded upon stamping. the hair line on the top bellow the "we" is nothched down instead on even. these types of errors are listed in the redbook and some values are given.
