Oijogja Pillar of the Community United States 715 Posts	Posted 04/12/2017 7:36 pm Ah, another good example of the overworked dies from the 1950's. The die break off the I in LIBERTY, Die Deterioration Doubling on the 3 of the date, not sure what's up with the I in UNITED but I think it's damage from circulation, plus some die chips in the left wheat ear.

The break looks to be between the L and the I if am seeing it right? If so it is actually an "LII" Variety. Cuds On Coins does not have one listed for a 1953-P LWC so this would be a new listing I believe. http://cuds-on-coins.com/lincoln-cent-bies/ If the die break is in between the I and the B then it is an "IIB" Variety, and would still be a new listing.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/13/2017 3:29 pm Looks like coin contact from coin damage altered the 'I' on the reverse on UNITED. Report this Post to the Staff
