mb560600 Valued Member United States 209 Posts	Posted 11/16/2021 12:29 pm Obviously the coin has seen a lot of circulation, but there are missing mouth and eye/nose features. What's going on here? Thanks for your help. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter4 Pillar of the Community United States 1078 Posts	Posted 11/16/2021 12:40 pm Nice find! I once found one that had extremely over-polished features, leaving Lincoln considerably skinnier. I wrote on the flip "skinny Lincoln".

mb560600 Valued Member United States 209 Posts	Posted 11/16/2021 1:18 pm Thanks for the help JimmyD and CoinHunter4. Over-polished die was my second guess. I'm putting it in my collection and trying to think of a good name for it...maybe "Toothless Lincoln"? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 57522 Posts	Posted 03/02/2022 6:54 pm The over polishing can get sever. Which recently I figure it was probably a polishing to remove Feeder Finger Damage from the die. (Walk ling enough in the same paths, you find the road sinking. Thus when a new thought comes forward, other things seem more clear) Richard S.
