For now, though it is classified as a Class III date style/different date style. I just pulled this one out of a roll of UNC coins, and it has fairly odd toning and what look like roller lines running across it. 1949-S Lincoln Wheat cent doubled die - DDO-001, FS-101 Stage C Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2736 Posts	Posted 12/20/2020 12:03 am Nice Find TB! I bought one of these in the mid 80's for $3! I would like to take credit as a cherrypick but I can't since I bought it as a BU coin. here's the link with a photo of the original 2x2 I bought it in. http://goccf.com/t/356245 I always assumed the holder caused damage to the face but seeing yours makes me question that.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5785 Posts	Posted 12/20/2020 12:32 pm nice find TB. Is the controversy because of the two styles of 4, one with a blunt top and the other a pointed top? Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
