*** Edited by Staff to Add Denomination to Title. It's very important to have in the title. ***


I gotta tell ya.. Occasionally I will bust out the microscope and to get that interesting number to really show itself can be seen at a x10 magnification but this was taken at x100.

I have scoured the internet for a good month looking for any information on it and I haven't seen anything regarding it.. because it is so incredibly small and so much smaller than the MM. That is a very precise 9..

Just a small plating bubble that coincidentally looks like a 9.

It is a very precise 9, but it couldn't have come from the mint with that mark on it.

Is that feature raised, or sunken (incuse)? Beware Pareidolia...

Probably just a coincidental stain. Pareidolia. PMD.

Pretty funny, it is pretty "precise"! Bubble, PMD or a stain.
Lincoln Cent Lover!
