1919 Lincoln Wheat Penny Common Errors

• Double Die Strike: This error occurs when the wheat stalks and the Latin phrase “E PLURIBUS UNUM” are struck twice, resulting in a doubled effect. Such coins can be worth $100 to $200. 

• Off-Center Strike: A coin may be struck off-center when it shifts or is misaligned during striking. The amount of off-centering can vary, with some coins being worth $50 to several hundred dollars, depending on the extent of the deviation. 

• Repunched Mintmark: This error occurs when the mintmark is punched multiple times at different angles or locations. Such coins can be worth anywhere from $5 to $25. 

• Die Crack or Die Cud: As coin dies age through use, they sometimes become brittle and crack. When cracks form in the die, they transfer raised blobs, cracks, or lines onto the coin. A die cud, where cracks form on the rim, is one of the most desirable types of die cracks.
