Holy smokes, coin hunters! A sealed 2022 Loomis bankroll just revealed multiple uncirculated penny errors—including never-before-seen die cracks on the “W” and “T” of “UNITED STATES.” These errors are selling for 5−5−50+ each, and we’ve got the exclusive breakdown!
At PennyVerse.info, we live for these moments. Here’s everything you need to know about these brand-new 2022 errors and how to find them yourself!
🚨 The Discovery: “W” & “T” Die Crack Errors
During a routine roll hunt, multiple 2022 pennies showed identical die cracks:
- “W” Crack: Visible splitting in the middle stroke of the “W”
- “T” Crack: Vertical fracture on the crossbar of the “T”
🔍 Why It Matters:
✅ Never documented before – First public discovery!
✅ Multiple coins in one roll – Suggests a die deterioration error
✅ Uncirculated condition – Higher value potential
💰 Estimated Value: 5−5−50+ Per Error Coin
Based on comparable die crack sales, these errors could fetch:
| Error Type | Low Grade | Mint State (MS-65+) |
|---|---|---|
| “W” Crack | 5−5−10 | 20−20−50 |
| “T” Crack | 5−5−10 | 15−15−30 |
Real-World Example:
- A single 2022 “Smoking Lincoln” error (minor die line) sold for $13
- These “W/T” cracks are more dramatic—meaning higher premiums!
