srs77 Pillar of the Community United States 3195 Posts	Posted 06/04/2018 1:42 pm I was fascinated by doodmandood730's 1916 Lincoln Cent thread. It made me go back and look at mine. I am not knowledgeable about matte proof Lincolns so I am presenting this to get opinions. My coin has some of the pickup marks for the matte proof, I've highlighted what I think they are on the obverse picture. I would appreciate everyone's thoughts on this. DoodManDood730's coin is an awesome coin. Thanks for looking.. Edited by srs77 06/04/2018 5:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/04/2018 3:22 pm I like the toning colors they pick up. Although I don't own one, I collect the images and appreciate them. The colors look so unique because of the packing that toned them that way. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/04/2018 5:40 pm The rims are sure there (!) but somehow the surface texture looks too "hard" and flat. Hope I'm wrong! Report this Post to the Staff
Waynoah83 Pillar of the Community 586 Posts	Posted 06/05/2018 11:11 am Is this also a minor DDO? It looks like there is some very minor doubling on the obverse, specifically the 1's in the date and some of the letters like the O in God and the E in WE. I'm prob dead wrong but can someone let me know if I'm just seeing things. BTW, NNNNIIIICCCCCEEEEE! Edited by Waynoah83 06/05/2018 11:23 am Report this Post to the Staff
