11997755 Pillar of the Community United States 2253 Posts	Posted 10/22/2016 11:03 am I pulled this out of a bank roll this morning. The area on his head appears raised. I can't tell if it is just an illusion due to the cracks or if it is actually raised. Any opinions ? Thank you for your help. Report this Post to the Staff

Sounds like you folks agree the area is raised and therfore would be an RIDB. I sent the images over to JC because at a minimum, the spike is unlisted. Maybe I will get a multiple listing out of it.

Dustin6 Pillar of the Community United States 3516 Posts	Posted 10/23/2016 09:20 am Without a doubt a spiker! Maybe a RIBD, but a pic of that area that shows it is not a lam would be neccesary, but cool find anyways! Report this Post to the Staff
11997755 Pillar of the Community United States 2253 Posts	Posted 10/23/2016 09:21 am I sent this in to JC and the spike is now listed as SKH-1c-1956-02. As far as the RIDB, he needs a better grade or later stage for the RIDB listing. The search is on. http://cuds-on-coins.com/lincoln-ce...s-1950-1959/ Report this Post to the Staff
