Good afternoon,

I have a Lincoln Wheat cent with the year 1919. However, what strikes me as odd is that the last two digits of the year are smaller than the first two. Is that something to watch out for?

On the 1919 Lincoln cents, the second nine is slightly lower than the first, making it appear smaller.

Thank you for the input, however pictures are something to be desired. To accomplish this, I have ordered a USB Microscope/Loupe so I can take the pictures and they turn out descent.
