Zachl1985 New Member United States 28 Posts	Posted 02/03/2017 5:08 pm I compared it to another 1952 penny I have and they both have thick and thin spots Report this Post to the Staff

ace_ftw Pillar of the Community Canada 1747 Posts	Posted 02/03/2017 5:20 pm nope, this is die deteriation, look at all of the legend and how they all stretch towards the rim, this is a classic sign of an old die. These LWC are notorious for them. a broadstike would have a clear smoosh out one side. Report this Post to the Staff
