This coin has a lot going on. I think it is Wide AM because on the reverse the FG is close to the steps, the A in states appears centered and though the AM is pretty close, not close enough..

It is the obverse which is most interesting. Could you look at this and tell me what is going on? (doubling? bubbling? other?)

Thanks in advance to anyone who helps.

It is a Wide AM but that is normal for 1992.

Normal for the date. Do a little research using the Search box.

Yes, I know it is a Wide AM. I am requesting help identifying the obverse errors.

There's no errors on the obverse, just staining.

@neutronical, if you're talking about the sort of bubbly pock-marked appearance of the obverse, it could be just plating blisters:

@igwt79 That was a really great article! Thank you. It cleared up a lot about subsurface corrosion as well.

The only other issues I wanted to know about regards the T's, both on "Liberty" and "Trust." I'm trying to learn how to identify doubling. On Liberty, the top of the T looks like it has a line through it (horizontal) and on "Trust" both of the stems of the t's appear to have indentures directly in the middle.


Is this typical? I just have a table full of Lincoln cents organized by date at this moment, and want to make sure that I'm not missing anything.

Thanks for your response, by the way, I appreciate that you took the time.

@igwt79 could it be WDDO-001 as described in Wexler? (I referenced this at doubleddie.com)

Could it be a tiny bit off center with a Ridge Ring?

With the current pictures, I cannot see doubling or any markers...
you have the coin in hand, see if you can match any of the markers. If so, try to post clear close ups oriented and cropped the same as on the site you are referencing.
