So you guys see a second 2 there? My concern was that it was even a 22.

The second picture looks like it could very well be a 22-d

So tough to determine for sure off these well worn examples. I have 1923's that look a lot like these.

Both are 22D's. The first one may be one of the "other" no D die pairs.

 Both are Lincoln Cents. Both are 1922's Both should be D mint Either one is worth quite a lot but in that condition, nothing fantastic. The value on these would be purely depending on the person that wants to purchse them.

For those contributors who speak in such certain terms that both are 1922. Can you please use this as a teaching moment to us all, and show us as to how you are so certain? Just saying "yes they are both 1922" doesn't teach the rest of us much on how to recognise them on our own. Thanks in advance

Thanks everyone, I wanted to confirm I did see them right. I will put the top one in that 22 plain hole in my album even if its not a plain, and the other into my 22-D tube.

I'd send the top coin to ANACS and let them sweat it out. It looks like a DP4 no-D, it has a shot.

They have the classic look of 1922 over-used dies. You can see traces of the second 2 in both pictures. I don't know of any other 20's issues cents there were generally as bad as the 1922-D's, especially the date/MM. There were certainly some poor quality cents made in the 20's, but the 22D usually takes the cake and are easy to ID.

I have this one also which I think is a die pair 1 due to the die crack from the L to the O in One.

I think I can see the "2"s on both, so IMO the year is 1922. Bad Thad, nice call on the identification of the die pair 4. Funny, yes they are all actually Denver Mints no mater how you slice it. ANACS will only attribute die pair 2 as a no d, and will call it a weak d if it's one of the other die pairs. If you pay a little extra I believe they will attribute it with the exact die pair, but not sure about that.
jleveille, yes I think I see the die crack which would make it the die 1.
