I am no expert, but it only looks like damage to me  |

Keep in mind this is from an original uncirculated roll.

OK, I guess I send it to ANACS.

The clip is small but genuine, the edge is tapered and weakness is present on WE TR.

I have trouble with the 1DO-003. The marks on your coin are similar to the ones on coppercoins (LDS) perhaps yours is even later. I can not see the doubling but that might be due to glare. Quote:

I agree with you Dr Don. I thought it might be a later die state than CC. A new series of cracks over powers the LDS cracks on CC. Some of the letters and the date seem a bit fat, but there is minor MD doubling also. I get better depth of field using more light, but sometimes areas highlight to much.
I've never seen a clip like this, so biokemist6 and Jayman931 thank you for your eyes.

It appears to be a bit ragged so it most likely would have been punched right at the the end of the metal stock sheet.

The object of collecting coins is not to resell for a profit. I leave that to the coin dealers. Once you make it a business, very few can enjoy collecting without loss of reputation.

Definitely a ragged clip on this one.

I'm not sure on the DDO though. The LIBERTY doesn't show what I feel it should in that area. The letters on 003 look to swoop back on them in that area? http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=ldsI don't see that in the images provided. But agree it is an incomplete planchet. Maybe a closer shot of LIBERTY? |

Thanks for the image Albert. But I'm not thinking this is from the same die a 003?  The doubling doesn't look the same as the 003. The devices don't look the same and I could find any die scratches/die flow that matched as well. I would keep for now, but I'm not seeing that your coin came from the same die. |

Interesting that the same die cracks extend NW from the I, B, and E. Somehow the vertical is stretched on my image, next to the other.
