I received a few rolls of pennies from my bank yesterday and I found this 1964 Lincoln Penny that looks to have no FG but I could be wrong and would like some professionals to weigh in on this topic. It could possibly be struck to Grease but I'm not 100% sure. Thank you for any and all input.

Looks like the over polishing of the die removed the sub device on the initials. Just a die event. Often when this happens the initials, roof edges and the statue can be affected. Not a big deal, just another polished die example.

Ok, cool that helps clear things up. I will review the videos you have on you tube to get a better understanding on how polishing affects the dies. Thanks again for your help.

yes, sure looks like a die polishing event here - you can still see parts of the FG in your close-up.

I can still see the FG even with over polishing.
