Is this a woodie or is it too minor for a woodie?

Thank you both for the fast repose.
Is any pattern would be considered a woodie? I tend to find several per box on a good day but I throw them back to the back to the bank pile.

And is this one a woodie as well even though the pattern is only on half of the coin?

I'd agree they are both woodies, but not what might be considered outstanding members of the breed.

These early 80s lincoln with the black lines are refered to as woodies BUT they are not technical woodies in terms of the actual Impropper alloy mix woody. The running theory on these late 70s early 80s black stiped ones is that they stem from roller lines when the metal was being roll stretched to the proper thickness.

I have to agree with that. Woodies are pretty much sought after for their beauty.
