A lot of three Lincoln RPMs had been going around on ebay for a few weeks. $9 for the set. I finally took a closer look and saw this quite pretty 1950-S in there, and when I compared the three found that there was one I didn't have, this one would be an upgrade, and the other was just a double. Figured it was worth it, and again no one else bid so I got the lot for $9. This is S/S/S, and in a really nice die state. Just a ding or three and a spot away from MS-67 as well. 1950-S/S/S Lincoln Wheat cent RPM-010 (southeast, serifs)

 Question - what are those tiny raised lines on the field around the 1 and 9?

Die scratches. Very useful to figure out which die is which for some of the more confusing varieties since the die scratches, like the variety, will be on each coin. That is, until they polish the die again and they change, but that helps determine die age as well.
