This one came up on ebay as an indent, but just visible in the photos was a bit of the LIBERTY so I knew it was a partial brockage. There is a substantial difference in value between an indent, which sell pretty low, and a partial brockage, which can go high if the brockage is particularly nice. Anyway, it's in really nice shape and paid less than $25 for it. There is a chance that at some point I may be able to date this one. It is a Spike Head, and those can be attributed. I did look through most of the zinc ones on cuds-on-coins, and the closest I could find was SKH-1C-1993-35 but it was inconclusive. No date Lincoln Memorial cent mint error - partial brockage

A real beautiful coin. I wish you luck trying to connect the spike head with a date.

Food for thought. Seen a similar die crack in the RIDB section. RIDB-1c-1995-04. Nice coin! Thanks, Doug.

Thanks all! I checked out the 1995 RIDB and while the crack comes through the W at about the same place, on this coin it shoots pretty much straight for a good while, and the one on the 1995 curves off. Saw that on a couple of them and think that the overall straight crack on this one will be key to eventually nailing it down. It has a distinctive curved crack at the end of the straight bit which would be a definitive attribute.

Thanks! And I should have caught the RDV but was focused on the Spike and completely forgot to even check that. That's a help!
