I was looking on wexler's for the 1997 Lincoln Cent error and OMG I got overwhelmed. It is unbelievable what's going on with the 1997 Lincoln Cent. I couldn't read through all of it I had to get out of there so I come here and ask the professionals and the cool people what's going on with my 1997 Lincoln Cent? Especially the word trust on the obverse. Is the St doubled? I was looking on the reverse too at the memorial columns and the bays. Didn't get far on that either every picture looked the same on wexler. Is there anything going on as far as doubling on those columns for the bays. And is there any other Lincoln cents that has so many things going on with it. I would hate to research those kind of coins that would drive me nuts. Thanks everybody you rock

Looks like simple Die Deterioration or plating doubling, it happens often above the motto on zincolns. I don't recall anything significant for 1997 as far as varieties. I toss them aside when searching.

. Not a DDO. Only DDO to look for is the doubled ear. http://doubleddie.com/834539.html

Impossible to find. I looked at what seems like over 100k 1997's and never found one. One of many varieties I gave up on so I could search faster for more valuable stuff.

They're indeed almost impossible to find. I've only found two CRH. I sold one on ebay a few years ago. Got screwed on it though. I had it up for auction for 99 cents as the starting bid, hoping I could get a bidding war going on. Didn't work. I ended up losing money. I learned my lesson on that one.
