You can also tell by the look of the coin. The obverse master hub was completely different from 1916 on. All Lincolns minted from 1909 to 1915 have a unique look to them. Lincoln Cent Lover!

dbrablec Pillar of the Community United States 1944 Posts	Posted 01/17/2012 3:38 pm my comment is not whether the coin in altered or not. I have no doubt that the experts have called it correctly. my comment is how did someone so precisely and neatly remove the portions of the 4 - to make it looks so completely like a 1. to my eye the fields of the coin look completely normal, around the area of the "previous" 4. someone has a lot of time and patience. it seems like a pretty cool coin - even if altered.

biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 01/18/2012 12:22 am A genuine 14d in those days was a $50 coin. How was it done? Basic dental tools. Did it pay? Prolly not. How about when people would put a handful of gold coins in a cloth sack and shake it all day? Report this Post to the Staff
