 .... tp the Community! Either my eyes are really bad or your pictures are way out of focus. Please try shooting them again and please rotate them properly. Thanks!

If you can't make anything out in your pictures then neither can anyone else.

Weight would also be a great help.

Even with the poor quality pictures it looks as though the cent was on a hard surface obverse up and the head and shoulder area of Lincoln was struck with a hammer making it a bit flat - the reverse was then flattened in the shape of Lincoln on the reverse from the hard surface it was on. I hope that makes sense -

 to the CCF! I think that the weight will be the determining factor here. I'm thinking thin planchet, but I just can't tell from these images.

So far it looks like it was struck on a thin planchet but better pictures would be definitive.

We are waiting for properly oriented and better focused pictures of the first coin you posted about.

I agree with others about the importance of the weight of the coin. That will give us a lot of info.
