Broken-Coin Pillar of the Community United States 1812 Posts	Posted 09/15/2012 3:00 pm Here is a 1996 Lincoln Cent I found when going through my granddaughters change a few weeks ago. At first I thought it was a heave grease strike, and now I'm not so sure as it may be a late staged strike from a capped die... I'm caught in the middle of this one... Report this Post to the Staff

derrick New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 09/15/2012 6:09 pm I'd say it is a capped die strike, with the cap fairly well deteriorated. Report this Post to the Staff
Broken-Coin Pillar of the Community United States 1812 Posts	Posted 09/15/2012 7:00 pm my gut feeling was a capped die strike, now with others in agreement, it will be labeled as so and enter the darkness of the ole storage container... Thanks to all... Report this Post to the Staff
