USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 07/25/2017 09:33 am I don't believe that's a spiked head. It's just a couple of die cracks. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 07/25/2017 10:15 am Yep it is a spike head. Report this Post to the Staff
USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 07/25/2017 10:23 am Hmmmm.. I was thinking the die crack had to actually come out of his head, not his shoulder or neck. That's why they call it a spiked head. Thanks for the correction and feedback CoinCents! Report this Post to the Staff
Newbie234 Pillar of the Community United States 1386 Posts	Posted 07/25/2017 10:27 am That exactly what this great forum is for. So we can learn as we go. To be honest. I was wrong about the spike head as well. Report this Post to the Staff
JC Stevens Pillar of the Community United States 538 Posts	Posted 07/25/2017 11:00 am Spike Head became popular in the late 1960's when the 1969 edition of "THE CLASSIFICATION AND VALUE OF ERRORS ON THE Lincoln Cent" by Jean Cohen was published. Jean hand illustrated and indexed 800 Spike Heads she found on the Lincoln Cents through 1969. Cuds-on-Coins http://cuds-on-coins.com/ Report this Post to the Staff
