I don't really put such things up there with die varieties, but they are in the CherryPickers' Guide and have considerable value so I save them when I see them. 1953 proof Lincoln Wheat cent re-engraved design - RED-002, FS-402 Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96674 Posts	Posted 09/10/2021 10:05 pm Do you have an example of a normal (non-re-engraved) 1953 coin for a comparison? Collecting since 1972.

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 09/10/2021 10:07 pm There are tons of examples of normal coins online. Here is the coinfacts page, and from here you can click into the varieties and see examples of both re-engraved designs as well. https://www.PCGS.com/coinfacts/coin...3-1c-rd/3368 Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8767 Posts	Posted 09/10/2021 11:04 pm I have a couple of these somewhere but they aren't as pretty as yours. Very easy to tell the difference though, Dearborn. There are a few re-engraved coins out there but this is one of my favorites and one of the few recognized.
