tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 12/29/2020 12:34 am Another of the controversial Lincolns is this one. VV sticks with it being a D/D east, while both Wexler and Coppercoins go with a D/S making it an over mint mark. This one doesn't show the supposed "S" very well, but I have seen some where it does look quite convincing. There is an extra image with the "S" shown to give an idea of where it is supposed to be. Found this Stage-B example in a roll this afternoon. 1956 D/D (D/S) Lincoln Wheat cent RPM-012, OMM-001 Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/29/2020 11:27 am Interesting to say the least. I'm inclined to think more of a D/D than a D/S given what the variety looks like. Very nice find! -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff

jmkendall Pillar of the Community United States 1590 Posts	Posted 12/29/2020 1:59 pm Interesting, but isn't that part of another mm inside the "d"? Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 12/29/2020 9:36 pm I tried to find an image in my files of one with a more distinct S but didn't locate anything better than this one, which admittedly hardly shows it. The marks inside the mint mark appear to be related more to the heavy abrasion scratches seen in the field than another mint mark, but it actually does have a second repunch. The lower serif has a nice split but VV doesn't note it. Report this Post to the Staff
