But then the fingerprints aren't awesome either. Still I liked it so picked it up. On the reverse, the second strike is pretty thin and curved up, but under a loupe you can see the FG from the second strike so it is bifacial. 2001 Lincoln Memorial cent mint error - double struck off center Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95641 Posts	Posted 05/02/2023 9:36 pm Pretty nice off center - and you are lucky you have a full date too. And yes, that print smear is unfortunate. Have you tried acetone to see if it lightens a bit? It looks fairly fresh... Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
