Solo Valued Member Indonesia 147 Posts	Posted 10/05/2023 09:20 am Good day to all CCF member. First, I would like to thank's to @bobby131313 (Forum Dad) for this great amazing site. I have bought several coins via ebay. (is it allow to mention a name or brand?) And one of them is 1943 Lincoln Steel Cent. What I like to ask is, I see the lincoln have doubled on his eyes. Right under his original eyes. Also 'T' from LIBERTY under the T. And the date too. I know the condition of this cent is not in the good condition. The scratch mark through LIBERTY ( I don't know is it PMD or something else). But I thought I would be interesting if what I saw on this 1943 Lincoln Steel is not just my Pareidolia. Anyway, here's the image of 1943 Lincoln (still on it's way). Need assesment and opinion from all of you CCF fellow. And thank you in advance. There's a smooth trace line under 'IN GOD W'. On the reverse I'm not sure the doubled on URIBUS and 'N' of ONE and CENT is PMD or Machine Doubling. Have a good day, Solo Edited by Solo 10/05/2023 09:54 am Report this Post to the Staff
