1922 Penny Obverse.
Extremely scarce Upright 9 common width date coin as described for other obverse entry. This coin has multiple flats around circumference of rim, and could obviously be the result of some tinkering in the back shed. But, considering the scarcity of this coin, the question has to be asked if there were issues during the minting process that caused the cessation of the mint run, and is the rim flattening the result of a mint die, machinery design fault/ breakdown etc.
