Dyjofe09 New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 11/04/2019 12:15 am I just found a rare Lincoln Wheat cent that I believe is the only verified OMM in all copper pennies. Please let me know what you think. Report this Post to the Staff

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7516 Posts	Posted 11/04/2019 10:06 am Sorry, that is not it! Perhaps a clear close up of MM and markers would help further! Report this Post to the Staff
Dyjofe09 New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 11/04/2019 12:05 pm This is the clearest pic I can provide. My phone sucks for pics. Hope you can see the D MM North under the S MM. I see if I can borrow a HiDef camera and post clearer pics. Thanks for your expert help though... Report this Post to the Staff

Dyjofe09 New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 11/04/2019 12:37 pm You should be able to see the bar from the D MM along the left side of the S MM and the bottom curve of the D is also shown inside of the lower curve of the S MM. Report this Post to the Staff

Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 11/04/2019 3:30 pm The S is in a slightly different position than the S/D. It has to be in exactly the same spot and position to be that die. Still nice coin for a change find! Report this Post to the Staff
Dyjofe09 New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 11/04/2019 5:00 pm The mint marks were hand punched back in those days so I don't think you're going to find exact matching MM positions. Report this Post to the Staff
Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 11/04/2019 6:01 pm Each die is exactly the same. As far as mint mark position is concerned. That same die punches thousands of coins. They all have the same mint mark position. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/04/2019 6:09 pm "hundreds of dies", not coins. The die is punched. Thus the reason all from that die will have the same location. Report this Post to the Staff
