I think so! One of the best strike through greasers I've seen if so!

I think so. Looks maybe like a 1987-D? Awesome find!

I think it may have been struck through a piece of cloth.

Maybe... pictures today aren't up to snuff. If I get new pics that tell another tale, I will post them.
Thanks

I think it was Struck Through a Late Stage Capped Die. Great find! http://www.error-ref.com/struck_thr...age_die_cap/

Will try to post better pics later.
Thanks

It kinda looks like a die cap but the strike looks a bit crisp in some points.

As GrapeCollects indicated, the sharp margins of Lincoln's bust are incompatible with a capped die strike. Therefore, it would have to be a grease strike.
