allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 09/09/2022 09:08 am It has been a while since I found a spike head on a Lincoln Cent. This 1995 P is certainly unusual in that category. The Die Crack starts under the W in IGWT from the rim to the head and continues thru the hair to a small junction point. It branches to the left and the other path goes to the ear and continues into the lower hair. This is unusual in appearance in that the last portiune looks like a crack verses being covered over. Never have quite seen this before! Let me know your thoughts about this coin. Also there is a small elongated Die Chip below the date just to tidy up this display! Regards to all!
