1998 Lincoln Copper Penny Mint Error NGC Signed 1998 Lincoln Copper Penny Mint Error Partial Collar NGC Uncirculated Thomas J. Uram Hand-Signed This 1998 Lincoln copper penny features a significant "Partial Collar" mint error, a striking anomaly where the coin was not fully seated in the collar during the minting process, resulting in a unique deformed edge. This specimen is graded as Mint Error Uncirculated by NGC and is housed in a specialty slab featuring a hand-signed label by Thomas J. Uram, the Retired Chairman of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee. Part of the prestigious North East Error Collection, this copper cent represents a rare opportunity for error collectors to own a piece with verified pedigree and a signature from a prominent figure in numismatics. The coin displays a bright, uncirculated copper luster and serves as a standout example of a mechanical production error from the United States Mint. 1998 Lincoln Memorial One Cent Partial Collar Mint Error NGC Uncirculated Thomas J. Uram Signed North East Error Collection Condition: This item is in Uncirculated condition as certified by NGC. It features a notable "Partial Collar" mint error, which occurs when the coin is struck while not fully seated within the collar die, resulting in a distorted or "railroad rim" appearance. The coin is housed in a specialty NGC holder from the North East Error Collection and features a hand-signed label by Thomas J. Uram, a former Chairman of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee. The strike type is a standard business strike intended for circulation, but it escaped the mint with this significant production flaw. The metal content is copper-plated zinc, consistent with United States small cents produced in 1998. Historically, Lincoln Memorial cents were minted from 1959 to 2008, and error specimens like this are highly sought after by numismatists for their unique manufacturing deviations.
