jpsi Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 07/27/2023 4:47 pm Hello all, I came across this Lincoln Cent with a rather odd looking features on the obverse and reverse, along with an unusual rim. The rim is tapered when viewed from the side. Is there a name for this type of feature? Thanks! Edited by jpsi 07/27/2023 4:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
