Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4404 Posts	Posted 04/07/2018 6:35 pm Definitely not a Proof Coin. No proof coins were made in 1919. We would need better pics to see if it is a doubled die or not. There are no DDs known for 1919, so it's unlikely. Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 04/07/2018 6:37 pm There were no proof coins struck in 1919 . Your Lincoln looks VF-25 . I can see why you might think this was a proof by the obverse rims . Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/07/2018 8:52 pm To me the last 9 looks like coin contact flattened that area of the coin. Not a proof or a matte proof. They were not struck that year. 1916 was the last year for them: LWC]-Looks-Like-A-Proof-And-I-Think-It's-A-DDO" class="userimg" style="image-orientation: from-image !important; max-width:80%;height:auto" name="img" src="uploaded/coop/1916_matte_proof_toned_1C_HA_3AAA.jpg" border="0" style='cursor:default' onClick='doimage(this,event)'> LWC]-Looks-Like-A-Proof-And-I-Think-It's-A-DDO" class="userimg" style="image-orientation: from-image !important; max-width:80%;height:auto" name="img" src="uploaded/coop/1916_matte_proof_toned_1C_HA_3AAB.jpg" border="0" style='cursor:default' onClick='doimage(this,event)'> Report this Post to the Staff
