My Girlfriend got this Lincoln Cent back as change and me being the penny collector thought I'd might wanna get some other eyeballs on it. Hopefully the pics I post will come out better than alright.

What caught my eye is how the platting or coating is wearing off. Then I noticed the neck, the eye and the hair even seamed odd. Then there's the word Liberty. The L and the I. Also "In God" and the last T in Trust.

The reverse does have the close A.M but the FG is also close or is it the way it should be? Any info would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance for the opportunity to post it on y'all's site. If y'all do decide to post a comment,,please keep it clean as I'm quite sure you would want me to.
