wheatychief Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 04/20/2026 2:38 pm Good afternoon, Please see the reverse at the top of the coin for reference of the weakness. On the obverse, see the bottom right of Lincoln Near the rim for matching weakness. I don't see any cracks. Is this post mint damage or perhaps the start of a Cud or struck through a lot of somethng? Thanks, Billie Jean * Edited by Staff to crop and/or rotate images.

wheatychief Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 04/20/2026 2:45 pm I do not have a small enough scale to weigh a coin. This could be motivation to get one though. Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8816 Posts	Posted 04/20/2026 6:24 pm I agree, need the weight. You can pick up one for 10 to 15 bucks on the bay or Amazon. Make sure it measures at least to one hundredth though. 0.00 -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
