This is both sides of a 1994-P LMC. The "YT" is raised on the steps and the hair-like smooth line is incuse on Lincoln's neck. How is it possible to have this particular die clash in this location and am I looking at a strike through hair on the obverse? Or is it all just PMD? Please help, all opinions are appreciated, thanks.

Could you also show full photos of both sides? Thanks.
I think the obverse is a scratch. There appears to be some areas along the line that have a raised ridge next to it.
If the T and Y are raised instead of incuse then I am not sure yet. The steps running through the letters leads me to think PMD.

By the way, I say T and Y instead of Y T because this is a backwards T Y from LIBERTY. Another clue to damage.

I say a penny was smacked onto another penny. PMD is my guess. Sorry didn't catch that the YT were not incuse too. Now I'm just confused.

The RTY doesn't look incuse by the photos(typo?)...If it was raised and from mint the letters would not be a reversed...I would say definite vise job...but if they are raised and backwards?

Did you try acetone on the letters to rule out glue?

Ah, great idea, I will give it a try when I get home. It does sort of look like something sticky dried between some of the columns above.
