Misplaced dates are a very exciting way to collect Indian Cents, as they can occur almost any where on the obverse. This type of variety was made popular by Kevin Flynn with the release of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Two-dates-are-better-than\/dp\/B0006FCEMQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Two Dates are Better than One<\/a> in 1997. Roughly half of all specimens in the book came from the Indian Head Cent series.<\/p>\n<p>Misplaced dates can appear in a number of areas. They can appear in the dentiles below the date and under the Liberty&#8217;s bust. They can even protrude from Liberty&#8217;s forehead or neck! Some are even suspected to appear in the pearls around Liberty&#8217;s nick. The MPDs that are very prominent and\/or protrude into the field are the most desirable.<\/p>\n<p>A few MPDs are below, check them out!
