1951 seems to have been a big year for encasing cents.




Why is 1951 such a big year for encasements?

I read somewhere that the concave edge is an earmark of an Encased Coin. I am posting below the edge of a 1951-D Lincoln Cent. I do not recall where I read this, but if you Google "Encased Collectors International" you will find information.

Here is the edge:

Pete2226 that pic looks like it came from my coin!

It must have been that the technology was cheaply available for advertisement stunts that year....

Or just an indication that the coin has been altered.

Because of being incased, it's now a cull coin. It's worth Copper melt value.
