A couple 1909 p's, couple vdb's, a 1960 D lincoln and a 1966 lincoln. I noticed the two oddball coins were off center. So I figured ok must be worth a few bucks and thats what the auction thought they were selling(?). The 1960 D lincoln memorial seemed to be just your average off-center coin. The 1966 p Lincoln was a very nice grade DDR. So not only is this coin off center it is a great DDR as well. I would love to hear opinions on what the coin may be worth and if it is worthy of slabbing. Edited by JBCoin 12/11/2011 5:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dave42 Pillar of the Community United States 571 Posts	Posted 12/11/2011 5:16 pm I agree. Lots of Machine Doubling, but not a doubled die. I also don't see any sign of it being off center, but it looks like a slightly misaligned die. Edited by Dave42 12/11/2011 5:17 pm Report this Post to the Staff
