mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 12/12/2023 08:18 am Well, that's a genuine 1944-D Lincoln altered to look like a 1914-D. One can even see the VDB on the shoulder, and the mm is not the right shape or position... Would be supremely ironic if this 44-D is a D/S over-mintmark...

MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 12/12/2023 10:20 am Good work Bobby! I looked at some of his other offerings and there were several other coins that just didn't look right either. This beat up "44d was so obvious though. Report this Post to the Staff
