Only the rim of the penny is missing and the words run perfectly along the edge. I want to know more about it.

I haven't seen any news of these errors appearing on the 09 coins you purchased. And it's hard to examine online. I suggest you visit a local coin dealer who can personally verify if this is an error coin. Hi Bridgette,

As soon as I opened the first box, I could see, with the necked eye, a huge scratch on the Northern Mariana Islands coin directly beside the engraver's initials. Should I send the package back because the one coin is damaged or do I hold on to it because it is an error? Please let me know because I don’t have a lot of time to return to item. Thanks.

How did you come by it? What you're describing is a Wrong Planchet error coin. A search at <a href="http://minterrornews.com/priceguideoffmetal.html" rel="nofollow">Mint Error News' price guide </a> shows a number of Quarters on Nickel planchets. The values seem to range from $100 to $750. Hi David,
