After looking over Coopercoins I really think it is very close to 1956P-1DO-005. I say very close because if this is a double eyelid could it be another version? Looking forward to seeing how its after an acetone touch. BTW - I have 3 other Lincolns to share and each will have the same opening (LOL). Did not want to place all 4 here since they are all different dates. Report this Post to the Staff

You start with size and position to compare against the listed ones, and then have to go to die markers to be sure. Very often you just can't match them, but sounds like you've been working on it. Good luck! Report this Post to the Staff

Curly82ABN Valued Member United States 177 Posts	Posted 03/15/2023 10:36 pm Getting closer. It might be that the wear is making it hard to confirm the markers. The listing for 1956 DDO-005 on coneca are so close. This one seems to be at an earlier die state based on sloping of IGWT. A few of the markers are showing, i.e., Die crack on forehead & Die crack Southwest from bust corner to rim. Or at this hour I'm seeing things. LOL Here are some close-ups.
