Hello everyone I am new here. Hi My name is Dave and I have a ? I have a 1960 D Large Date Lincoln Cent with some interesting marks. I asked Mike From CONCEA and he did not know. About a year and a half back I was in a chat and two guys where talking about this coin. I now have found 6 in a BU roll I got. Any one know what this error Is ? Thanks

Hard to tell what you have. The images are too small to tell. It maybe die scratches/gouges/coin scratches or something else. So larger images would be more helpful. I make mine in the 800-1224 pixel width. That would show us more.

They almost look like the scratches caused by a sorting machine, but it's not so bad that it was wiped out the date.

The coins are not scratched.The marks are like a Die Crack and raised up from the coin and starts under liberty and they perfectly round up over the bust all the way to the date >> NOT Die Scratches at all and NOT gouges.It is perfectly rounded and a Double line from one point to the other. Ever the great> Mike Diamond from CONECA could not figure it out.!!! ANYONE. Its some kind of error two guys where chatting about it, the one guy said what kind of error it is and to look for but I don't remember the error or the location of the chat post I read. The other guy said darn ill have to start looking for them. well I have 6 of them. And no clue what they are LOL

"Something else?" I am curious about what other possibility might be out there? This certainly looks like a die scratch/gouge to me...with the only mystery being what put it there?

I do not see it actually on the bust. Is it?

Very interesting coin you have there

with Coop images to small to tell anything



I like to see a close up of mint mark and date to see which die if possible

And are all 6 coins exactly the same or kind of the same.

Do they all of them have the same die markers and mint mark position?

Can we see a full coin picture to see
