What site or sites are you using to match markers? Here is CC's http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/dies...ie_state=mdsRemember you need to find the variety first,then match die markers.Also,when you take pics try to match the setup like it is on the reference site. John1

Be careful with just using a reverse die marker, especially from CC. What they don't take into account that VV does is a progression AND REMEMBER that the die pairs can change. A reverse die may have been used with a DDO/RPM obverse then used again with a different obverse. Those die markers would then remain, see?

Use more than one site for references. CC's,VV and Wexler. But, you still need to find the variety first,then match die markers. John1

I see you started new thread, so I removed that picture from this thread. This thread was moved to Modern Grading since you are asking for a grade. The other thread does not ask for grading, so it was moved to the Variety section.

It's not the doubled ear Doubled Die Obverse. It's a normal Lincoln Cent. For the grade, I would say AU condition.

Here's what a well worn AU example looks like. Even worn and circulated this ones easy to spot. This is the only one I have found and it was in the same brick as an 1968 DDR FS-801.

Yep. LuvmyCAM showed a example of one he found. Your example does not match, as it doesn't have the doubling and doesn't have the correct die markers. Sorry, but you don't have it.
