This one looks on vertical bar at upper is thicker inside/East and outside/West ? Right above vertical looks raised. Whatcha think please and thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 01/11/2021 6:27 pm It's not a D over D, it's just Split Plate Doubling. The strike pressure caused the too thin copper plating to split and exposes the zinc core. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/13/2021 10:52 am There was an issue with mintmark punch damage that affected that year: http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=eds Note the information about the de-listing of this die on the site. I found several affected dies that year: The OP's coin may have been one of the early affected damaged punch issues. Note just the one side of the mintmark is affected. If it were a RPM, I would expect to see the top on the inside of the mintmark to also be affected. Report this Post to the Staff
