Very nice die clash, congrats on the find. =) If you are asking about the line that runs through Lincoln's eye and out the back of his head, that is the clash line from the bottom of the memorial. Mad Die Clashes seems to be down at the moment, so here is another link to a good overlay: http://lincolncentsonline.com/Die%20Clashes.html |

Thank you all so much. Appreciate the confirmation and warm welcome! @Brandmeister, that makes perfect sense, thanks for clarifying for me!
Next question......would you send it in (if so, opinions on most cost efficient/reliable third party) or would it just be worth about as much as that would cost? The pictures make the color of the coin look in worse condition than it is (I hate that). It's actually pretty clean and shiny. :)

As a general rule,a coin needs a minimum retail value of $150 to justify all costs involved in sending it in. Your coin is worth maybe a couple bucks. John1 |

@John1, good to know, and it's probably a good thing it's more about finding the needle.....or waldo for me.  I did just find the 1999 Wide AM also. (forgive me if I don't see a reply to specific comment option?) |
