Information On This 1959 Lincoln Cent

Can not tell with these photos - can you show in in-focus close up of the date area?




Absolutely - that's all part of the education we try to offer.

Assuming this is not a desirable variety it appears to be a nice, collectable MS example. Spots on the reverse hold back the eye appeal.

NumisMedia FMV has this at $3.74 if it made MS64. NumisMedia is the high end of the retail price guide. You should find them as one of your future references.

Need better photos. In focus and less glare. You need to filter your light source. http://goccf.com/t/422658

As stated, we need better closeup pics and more than likely it is just deterioration, common on these.

Don't forget to check the reverse, there are some nice DDR's for this year. Most can be seen with a very thick tail of the R in AMERICA and thick FG initials.

Yes, this looks like DDD to me as well.
