I won a lot of 11 Lincoln cents on ebay and this was one of the coins. It looks like 1972 DDO-001 but it looks really mushy. Also, I don't see any of the reverse markers (die scratch SW to NE between the lower I and T of UNITED and a die gouge protruding from the rim above the D in UNITED.

The lot also contained a 1936-P LWC DDO-002 and a nice 1919 S LWC. I'll try to post pics of the 1936 in a separate thread later today. Any feedback is appreciated

Very POOR FAKE You can see all the casting pits and the messed up rim. 2X2 and a show coin to learn from. What happened to ABE'S Ear Did he come to the future and fight Mike Tyson

Unfortunately, it's Fake. Obverse is mushy and faded, reverse looks absolutely lifeless.

The marks on the face and above liberty and especially the "broken off" piece at the 7 o-clock area, make it look like the coin might be made of clay or sand, then copper plated.
