OcalaFlorida Pillar of the Community United States 2824 Posts	Posted 04/07/2014 11:44 am got a box this morning to search 40 rolls where 2014-p, rest where rotten zincolns. but in the last roll I found this cool little one. It was not a total lose I found 25 War Nickels in one roll of nickels I got with the box. I assume this is a Struck Through Grease but I am not 100% sure as I am still new to all this. 1998-P Greaser picture taken on top of 2x2 not under plastic Please correct me if I am wrong... Please look at last two pictures of the head** There some weird things going some sort of Machine Doubling or something to around the head.. I have no clue ? But I am sure someone here will know.. I made out date by blowing up a whole bunch and assuming.. check bottom pictures as the whole coin photos lighting looks like yuck thats not really there as you can see in the details pictures.

But as is, it is just interesting. Keep it to show to newer collectors. They like stuff like that. Report this Post to the Staff

Just did a search and I see other 1998 with same hairline plating issue on similar Struck Through Grease Lincoln. Edited by OcalaFlorida 04/07/2014 1:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
