It appears to be a small date because of the shape of the "9", the "6" and the "0". Also, the top of the "1" extends above the top of the "9". I don't know that they made Large Dates at the San Francisco mint. Someone with more knowledge will chime in.

Not a real coin. It is a replica. The 'S' mint mark was the first clue.
Rest in Peace

No, you don't see too many of those. It must be pretty rare. I wasn't too concerned with the mint mark (it looks fake), just wondered if they faked a large or small date...

Think they faked the 0 as well, not in right spot for either!


ONLY $19.76 (coincidence, Providence!) for you Yankees!



Gotta have this!

Coins are counterfeited all the time. When it is a bad job, it stands out like a sore thumb:

There were 5 1960-S Lincolns for sale
5 1960-S Lincolns
Someone saw it and
One got sold
There are 4 1960-S Lincolns for sale...

That someone could have save a lot of money buying it directly from "the source" and got free shipping, too.
