John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/31/2018 5:56 pm to CCF. OMM's,over mint marks stopped in the 1960's I believe. Need better close up pics to tell what you may have. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/31/2018 8:04 pm Slit plating on the mint mark. Just a normal coin, the strike split the plating and now the coin looks like that from the zinc receiving oxygen and swelling: Spendable. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/16/2021 1:09 pm Split plating starts exposing the zinc, the zinc swells and distorts. It is not a OMM. It happens on many of these zinc cents. Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 12/16/2021 2:14 pm To CCF , there's no way that coin can be a D over S . The only S mint in 1988 were proofs . So it's a D mint with what coop said . Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 12/16/2021 4:37 pm T-BOP hit it the main issue. Only S were proofs, so a D over S is not possible. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19202 Posts	Posted 12/16/2021 4:42 pm Agree. Mint mark split plating. Going on, many split plate mint marks take on an O appearance. Of course, no zinc core Lincoln cents were minted in New Orleans. Report this Post to the Staff
