Thank you for you comments and opinions. They say there were 4 die varieties But I can only see that there was three. Ever example is slightly different from what I have seen. Yes lincold is a little rough but being the being its one of the highest points on the coin is there no possible way that the date could still be correct as far as condition. As far as there identifiers from what I have red the second 2 is indeed finer the the first. Trust is in better shape than in god we except the t and r are slightly fuzzy. Having said that every other example when the weak d finally was not visible the reverse on the other dies were never sharp. Now if the d was removed and lincold is in that condition than why the strong reverse. I am not disagreeing with anyone but I have examined this coin under a micro scope and the is not one trace of there ever being a d nor is there a single tool mark or worn area where it should be. I am just saying this ti try and understand better then short explanations which I do appreciate but I would like to know more factors that if they did remove the D and the Lincoln qa was like that then why the strong reverse? I just am trying to be certain if it's worth the chance in grading before I send back the coin. If you think is absolutely not genuine could you be more specific. Thank n you all for taking the time to reply. Also if the markers you say are not correct could please tell me what they are because must be researching different material than you. Thanks again

Not an expert by any means...but the L doesn't butt up against the rim...so it can't be the desirable no D die pair #2. Still a good looking coin...but if paid No D die #2 money for it...you might want to reconsider your purchase. Thanks for sharing and pretty good pictures for a newer member! smat

Likely a struck counterfeit rather than a removed mintmark. If it were genuine it would have to be die pair 2 because of the strong reverse. But the numbers "192" and "IN GOD WE" are much sharper than you would expect with that die pair, and as @smat45 said, the L is separated from the rim. Clearly not a genuine 1922 no D. I would return it if I were you.

This is 100% a counterfeit. Look how LIBERTY looks. Look at TRUST and the date. None of it is correct. Hope you didn't buy it as the variety.

I hope this is allowed? From the original, and I'm learning. The letters look terrible, bend and distorted.

My error - there are only three recognized die pairings, not four. But this is still not one of them.

Here is a Link of sale prices for the 1922 weak/missing 'D' cents: https://www.PCGS.com/auctionprices/...no-d-ms/2541I was trying to put a set of images up, but been busy with the trying to figure these out. (what die numbers they are) First edit of the information from LCR: Click to enlarge the images/text to read even larger print/images.

Quote: maybe fake, but I would have it graded then you would know for sure There is zero chance that this is a genuine 22 no D. If you have the ability to return the coin but instead take the time and money to send it to a TPG, you may lose that window of opportunity.

I don't qualify to be a Lincoln collector, but look at enough cents to say everyone here has it right that this is a poor fake.

Agree, there is zero chance this is real.

I agree, counterfeit. If you're convinced that everyone here is wrong, we would encourage you to prove us wrong and submit it to PCGS for grading. If it the real real, please let us know along with a photo of the stab. We're on your side and sincerely hope we are wrong, but this is the only way to know for sure. This is one of the most counterfeited coins on the market, so please excuse our skepticism. Bonne chance!

For you own observation I put together Up the photo of one recognized and down the photo of your coin. Take a deep look at the wheat on both sides, and you will see the differences.
