SilverSpot New Member United States 11 Posts	Posted 09/18/2016 10:40 pm I've looked through a couple of bank boxes of Lincoln cents in the last few months. I set this aside to post and ask about. Is it a strike error of some sort or just an over polished die? In god we trust is on a bubble if you will,and the I in "IN" is faint so is part of L in liberty. Thanks again for your time.
