This one is kind of interesting. I find the strength of Lincoln's head on the obverse rather strong for a coin with that strong of brockage.

CoinHI you want to chime in? You're better with these than I am.

Neat.
I wonder if its possible for the late stage die cap flipped over?

I'd say a very nice clashed cap strike, possibly first or at least very early strike after the clash since there is little distortion.

The cap was pretty thinned out before the clash which allows Abe's head to show a little stronger than usual.

correction: Abe's features are the result of a counterbrockage.

I was kind of buying into the idea of a thinned cap producing a fairly well-raised Lincoln. What leads you to counterbrockage? While the clashed cap is spreading the raised Lincoln seems about normal in size and orientation.

Just over thought that one, its bleed through from the thin die cap.

Excellent! That settles this one. It really has superb eye appeal in hand with my pics just not doing it justice. The light I've been using lately seems to struggle to really show the luster and shine on MS coins. Something I need to play with.
