Dearborn Moderator United States 95981 Posts	Posted 09/29/2022 7:38 pm the weak spot on the reverse is due to the thicker profile of Lincoln's shoulder taking up too much metal, not leaving enough for the reverse. Notice how the very top of the devices are formed correctly - this is the area on the obverse between the bust and the rim. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." - Benjamin Franklin 7070 type set coin count: 51/76 Uncirculated American Silver Eagles My American Silver Eagle Proof Collection Sacagawea Dollars Innovation Dollars Eisenhower-Dollars Kennedy-Half Dollars Washington-Quarters Roosevelt-Dimes Buffalo-Nickels 1938-2005 Jefferson-Nickels Lincoln-Cents Edited by Dearborn 09/29/2022 7:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 09/29/2022 8:56 pm It looks like the dies could have needed adjustment. The die gap wasn't correct for the strike so metal flow into Lincoln's shoulder/vest left this area weak. As noted, this is seen on many Lincoln Memorial cents of seeming every date of issue.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/30/2022 12:51 pm Also the DDD is showing on both sides of the coin. You might want to save this as an educational piece to show to a new collector. (Show and tell coin) DDD and other issues that don't increase the value of this coin. (only costs one cent to keep it) Sometimes harder to find what you need quickly for the DDD issue. Keep it in a half dollar tube for such purposes for show and tell coins.
