Am I looking at a obverse improper alloy mix with struck through?
Thanks for the help.

I think it is PMD looks to me like it took a hit you can see some of the metal has moved. Still a good looking coin.

PMD although the Lincolns right eye, eyelid, eyebrow and surrounding relief is still intact?

Struck-throughs don't have peripheral raised edges.

I agree, some angles show what appear raised edges but some show a cleaner recess without.
Thanks again for everyone's input. Still learning. Will double check under a microscope next.

OK, bear in mind that you cannot use the same file name over an over again on the same day.

You just over-wrote the first 5 images above with a 1919 cent you posted in another topic.

So, I'm going to remove the 5 images above that do not corelate to a 1955 cent.

I saw that too. I apologize and not sure exactly what I did to have that happen but I deleted what was not on topic.

you reused the same file names for the 1919 coin. You cannot do that. each image must be a unique name.
These are the instructions that you get when posting an image:
1955-S-Lincoln-1c-Unc

So, you can re-take the images for your 1955 coin, then edit your post above and add the images.

Or just get new images and post them to the end, and I can move them for you.

Looks like damage - like others have stated - raised edges - metal displacement. Like a crater is formed on the moon (or Mars)
