Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 04/05/2019 08:24 am I got this for less than $10. The pics were bad but in hand it is uncirculated with a tiny bit of luster left. What do y'all think? Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 04/05/2019 08:44 am Hi Will, This one is interesting. Looks more like an uncentered broadstrike than an off-center, but... There are a couple of small red flags here that this could be a counterfeit so don't rule that out too quickly. Many of the fakes that are out there are in roughly this condition, it looks like there is a full rim in places where there shouldn't be a rim, and things like the last T in TRUST and the 6 of the date look a little odd. Nothing leaping out at me, and certainly there are mis-strikes out there, but just can't quite be sure here. Report this Post to the Staff

chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 04/05/2019 09:20 am Nice pick up. Personally I don't see LWCs off center as common as the LMCs. I'd say you nailed the 10% number too. Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection: http://goccf.com/t/303507 Report this Post to the Staff
Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 04/05/2019 09:54 am Thanks guys. I figured they were relatively rare because I don't see them much so I outbid the guy in the last couple minutes. Also TB, I've looked at the off center broadstrikes too, they're very similar. This one has the blakesley effect on LIBERTY and the motto. Report this Post to the Staff

seanqueue Valued Member United States 59 Posts	Posted 04/05/2019 12:22 pm The metal flow you are seeing on your coin is consistent with a genuine uncentered broadstrike, but please do not confuse that with Blakesley effect, which occurs on clipped planchets during the upsetting process.
