jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 06/30/2022 02:52 am What is your question? I describe this coin as ugly, stained, damaged, and hardly worth the one cent that it is labeled as. Spend it while you can! Suffering from bust half fever.

Spence Moderator United States 34426 Posts	Posted 06/30/2022 05:50 am @smp, I agree. The various gouges, including that odd circular one on the rev, are all explainable as damage.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19195 Posts	Posted 06/30/2022 07:24 am I suspect too--given the very soft images posted-- that we may be seeing an early-stage Dryer Coin (early, uniformly flattened devices on the obverse and a slightly pronounced rim). Might be interesting to see the coin in-hand. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97084 Posts	Posted 06/30/2022 07:50 am OK, lets see, strange very dark spots on the reverse - cannot tell if raised or incused, I see no corresponding mark on the obverse at all. Staining all over the coin Coin roller damage on the obverse All so far PMD. Better pictures and a description of what you see is needed here. Collecting since 1972.

Dearborn Moderator United States 97084 Posts	Posted 06/30/2022 1:52 pm wow! Huge difference in the photos! the second set are great. now, that big divot on the reverse corresponds to a dent I see on Lincoln's collar by the back of the neck. this was intentional damage. As were the other smaller divots too as they are similar to the big one. This coin just has post mint damage all over it, just a spender. Collecting since 1972.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/30/2022 4:20 pm Always at least try to describe what you see going on with your coin. I agree, this is post mint damage and not worth saving. Keep searching! Report this Post to the Staff
