This interesting find comes from The Coin Guy on TikTok. It's only found on 1995 pennies that have a noticeable error. Look at all the words on the front of the penny. If you see the word "LIBERTY" double-printed, that means you may have found gold. Sort of.

It's even clearer on the "IN GOD WE TRUST" print. The minting press hit it twice.

The Coin Guy on TikTok mentions that while 1995 pennies like this in epic condition have sold for more than $7,000, but even the worse condition coins with this error easily bring in over $75. That's a good trade...for a penny.
