2000 Lincoln Memorial Cent - Double Struck? Broadstruck? Wide AM?

Gary, It's not the fact that it is a type II or a Broadstrike, it is a fact that it is both, a double error and being this large of a broadstrike it is indeed quite rare.

Now you guys have me all confused! I have a few with that type of surface metal configuration, but I was not aware it was, Is, a broadstrike. I figured it was just clad metal displacement due to the planchet not being completely seated in the chamber, and subsecuently, the strike caused the "gathering of the metal to be pulled in the direction of the anvil die, ie, in the opposite direction of the planchet being seated. This is not a good explanation of what I'm trying to say! See foundinrolls comment, above I just toss them in with the junk coins that are too damaged, with "whatever" to go nto the rolls with other coins, I'm saving.

Just to add a little more to the mix....the coin initially being discussed is both an error and a variety. It is not actually as mentioned in a post, "a double error".

The Broadstrike aspect of the coin is the error in the striking process.

The Type II designation is the variety aspect of the coin.

I just wanted to add that to the mix as it is a more accurate way of describing the coin.

Have Fun,
Bill
