Ondiwave Valued Member United States 275 Posts	Posted 12/01/2022 07:01 am Good morning! Going through some of my grams coins & this one jumped out at me. I checked VV & wexler's websites & can't find a matching example of doubling. Also there appears to be a couple different of die events on Lincoln. Id love some feedback on what you see.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21599 Posts	Posted 12/01/2022 10:45 am I can't see anything that can't be attributed to damage or wear. Not sure of where you see DDO Report this Post to the Staff

JTCC Pillar of the Community United States 797 Posts	Posted 12/01/2022 11:20 am I agree, a normal coin with some circulation hits / flattening. Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 12/01/2022 3:48 pm Just a normal circulated coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Ondiwave Valued Member United States 275 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 12:16 am Got it. I played with the settings on my microscope screen too. here are photos to show you "what I was seeing".- one is marked up- the other is for reference. The two lines are where I was seeing the separation of two dies. or where I thought I was seeing them. learning more everyday. :) cheers! Thanks everyone for bearing with us newbies lol Edited by Ondiwave 12/02/2022 12:17 am Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 04:42 am Your blue photos (why blue?) are circulation flattening. Overall, a normal looking coin just well circulated. No errors here. Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15408 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 05:24 am Agreed - a normal circulated cent. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 12:30 pm The tops of the 'U' is die wear. The direction is the clue on this. The 9 is showing a different direction. So I feel this is coin flattening. While this looks interesting, the other devices would be affected also on hub doubling. Just not seeing that on your coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Ondiwave Valued Member United States 275 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 3:51 pm @merclover- unfortunately the large light fixture about is very orange.so I tried to reduce the saturation before posting. @coop oh ok that makes a lot of "cents". Thank you for explaining!! Report this Post to the Staff
