thingee Pillar of the Community United States 2177 Posts	Posted 11/10/2007 11:02 pm Check out the reverse of this cent. Most steps are missing and the columns are off and not complete. Are many 2006 cents this sloppy and is anyone collecting these or are they just too common? Image: IMG_0abe06rev1.jpg 51.26 KB Edited by thingee 11/10/2007 11:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/11/2007 3:39 pm The lines your are pointing out is part of the design to show depth. Check others to see. Now if you not referring to the vertical lines, then a reexamination might be needed? Report this Post to the Staff
thingee Pillar of the Community United States 2177 Posts	Posted 11/11/2007 8:54 pm The arrow on the right side points to an incomplete line- it doesn't go all the way to the bottom. Most of the steps are filled from a filled-die maybe? Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 11/11/2007 9:25 pm Hi Thingee can I see the obverse ? is there a corresponding flat spot on lincolns head ? your coin looks like a very weak strike ,, the step details and lincolns head being the higher points for their respective sides would be the most affected by such a strike.
