itsmybitty New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 05/13/2017 09:05 am I got this coin back in some change and noticed it was a little difference. I'm not a well versed collector but I have culled out any coins that I found interesting and possible errors since I was a child. Mostly all were of course after mint errors. This one though has raised front center and sunk obverse. Both centers are rotated but at what appear to be different angles and the front faintly looks as if it has a 3rd Lincoln head. Possible the eye of the third being at the hairline on the neck of the rotated center head. The coin also has a weight that is 10% over the weight of this coins official minted weight should be. Any help with what this is is greatly appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff
