Pretty sure this is a Struck Through Grease or field restricted struck through error? Had a good box with a lot of good finds in it. This was among those finds.

Looks like a laser blast coming from Abe's eye!

Same here bugil46, last couple were a few mostly later wheats, foreign and about 1/2 lb copper. This box was good. Might see if they have the sister box when this storm leaves Florida... again.

Interesting coin. Congrats. I don't recall seeing a Struck Through Grease with such a sharp linear feature before. I wonder if it could have been struck on a defective planchet.

I agree with a defective planchet that was plated then struck.

If weight is normal, then it could be a struck through something with that shape. If the weight is under slightly then it maybe a bad planchet issue that cause that issue before the strike.

IMHO this coin was struck on defective planchet. I can see the broken zinc roll. I like the coin, nice example not very much see.

I believe it's a strike through. Looks very similar in shape and texture to some nickel strike throughs I've seen recently.
(Also the weight is normal)

I'm going with damaged plan. There wouldn't be very much weight difference on a zinc planchet. So .03 sounds right. I like the name Laser eye Lincoln.

Cujohn that name is perfect. I was looking at it and thinking some kind of Marvel Lincoln character. I might send it to ANACS just to get a grade on it and slabbed.
