CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 01/14/2017 8:11 pm So over-polished that the Y is practically gone. Thought it was cooling looking. You can see some of the polishing they did around the back of Abe's head as well. Edited by CoinCents 01/14/2017 8:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff

cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 01/14/2017 9:52 pm Later on I believe even more of that die was polished away. http://www.lincolncentsonline.com/error.html I think Coop also has an example of the over polished dies for this same year and mint.

CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 01/15/2017 12:54 am Thanks Mike, you are welcome to post it here for show (if you like) - that is why I did not put the date or coin type in my title line. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/15/2017 12:12 pm Seems like that year, someone was abusing the dies when trying to remove a clash or something else: Probably the same die? Report this Post to the Staff
oldmike Pillar of the Community Canada 891 Posts	Posted 01/17/2017 1:23 pm Here is my 72 CC. still see remnants of the die clash in front of the chin behind his neck and the date also a small die crack at the top of his head Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCollector2000 Pillar of the Community United States 2563 Posts	Posted 01/17/2017 4:47 pm Imagine how major a die clash they were trying to cover up there would've been Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 01/18/2017 08:07 am Wouldn't have minded adding a clash like that to my collection. I checked out Maddieclashes.com and they have a lot of listings for 1974D Report this Post to the Staff
