WxMike New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 11/24/2020 10:29 am I've come across missing digits on coins before, mostly from grease errors or just weakly punched planchets. However, I don't think I have seen a coin missing most of the digits in the date. It also looks very clean too, barely any trace of the numbers. I know its a 1960, since the zero has a distinct shape vs the one in 1970. Anyone ever seen something like this? Report this Post to the Staff

Kcm Valued Member United States 132 Posts	Posted 11/24/2020 1:04 pm My eye is drawn to Lincoln's eye. Having studied quite a few thousand LWC's in all years and all grades, I remain impressed that the upper eyelid is seldom worn or damaged even though it presents in high grade as if it were a very vulnerable detail. I don't see any eyelid on the image. I, like those before me, suspect it was lost to some species of hanky-panky. Kevin Edited by Kcm 11/24/2020 7:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Pillar of the Community United States 4635 Posts	Posted 11/24/2020 5:31 pm I agree with intentional damage. Looks cool at first, then reality of tomfoolery sets in. I wanted to believe, but alas, it's just intentional post mint damage. Does not look a Greaser to me. to the CCF! ça va bien aller Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Pillar of the Community United States 2420 Posts	Posted 11/24/2020 7:57 pm Could be another ultra rare example of an O mint coin. Just kidding...... Report this Post to the Staff
Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 11/24/2020 9:17 pm There was a very similar no date Wheat cent posted recently. It was deemed a Greaser. I don't see any damage around the date and believe with better pics this could be a Grease Filled Die. Report this Post to the Staff
