coincollector1628 New Member United States 45 Posts	Posted 10/06/2016 4:55 pm I have held onto this Lincoln Cent for a while thinking it was just a Greaser, but the more I look at it, I'm starting to think it could be a die-adjustment strike. Both sides are weak, particularly around the edges, and those areas that are in full detail still look a little shallow. Any ideas? I have some other greasers, but they all have one side that isn't affected. Edited by coincollector1628 10/06/2016 5:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 10/06/2016 6:36 pm Sorry changed my mind again..... coincollector, could be wrong cause the rim shows some weakness at one point, so weak strike maybe plausible, but looks like Struck Through Grease at the same time. Also pending the weight is normal. Thanks, Doug. Edited by Halo1st 10/06/2016 6:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/07/2016 07:09 am How to tell the difference between a stuck through grease and a low pressure strike: Note the rims. Present on Struck through error. Not present on low pressure strike. You have rims on your coin, so it is a Struck Through Grease error. Report this Post to the Staff
