decalman New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 6:04 pm Besides being off center, this Lincoln Cent seems to have Floating Die Clashes on Obverse and reverse. Can anyone determine what the lettering says, (if that's what it is) on the blank parts of the planchet? Thanks, Decalman. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21634 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 6:13 pm Nice off centre strike but I think what you are calling" floating die clashes are just linear plating bubbles. There is some split plating on the Reverse. Edited by JimmyD 03/04/2022 6:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97436 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 6:20 pm Correct, linear plating bubbles. I wonder though are they partially caused by the pressure of the strike by the dies? I notice that the unstruck planchet looks smooth but where it was struck, the field looks bumpy and infected with the plating bubbles. Collecting since 1972.

Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 7:14 pm @decal that is pretty neat. How will you store it? In a 2x2 or something else?

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 7:22 pm Me I look at the blanc part. Except nice off-center. I think a close pic of the both sides of the blanc circle arc ends on the reverse could tell more. Sure I see the Zinc and full rim. Photos please.
