Nothing is mirrored like it should be, and the date on the reverse says 1963. It's almost like the coin was struck twice. Thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Benja Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 08/06/2017 03:44 am What I'm confused about is the fact that the second image is not reversed. Report this Post to the Staff
Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 08/06/2017 8:38 pm I'm confused about how Lincoln's head is halfway behind the memorial and halfway in front of it in the second pic. I would need to see the edges -- although I doubt there's anything remarkable there, and I would like to know the weight, and I would also like to soak it in acetone and see what it looks like after it's had a bath.
