Thanks MOS0239 - Your picture looks like an earlier strike from the same die that struck mine - if that's correct terminology. How were you able to find a picture of it so fast? Do you collect error Lincoln cents?

We use the nickname "cracked skull" quite a bit here. I was wondering "Cracked Skull" but would that term include the die cracks coming off Lincoln's head and going up into the letters toward the rim? |

Yup. Cracked skill on a '55 poor man's. Nice example. I have a tube of these, with varying crack patterns.

The black stain is called a carbon spot. Not a good thing for a coin.  Edited by coop
