First it weighs 3.1 GM's so it's copper and it has a small 2 on the date. On the obverse it has two rims starting at God of the motto to Lincoln's shoulder and a Cud between the two rims left and right of the L of Liberty. It is very unusual to find a double rim approximately 40% of the coin, a first for me. Secondly the reverse has two Die Cracks from the left and right Memorial roof line across the I's in United & America! I guess you could say the I's have it. Look at the pics and let me know your thoughts. Regards all. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21586 Posts	Posted 04/07/2025 5:10 pm The Obverse is caused by a Misaligned Die. The cracks are common in that area, sometimes they show in all four corners of the memorial. Probably a weak spot in the die. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94892 Posts	Posted 04/07/2025 9:14 pm I agree, a MAD strike causing the 'double' rim which created the fold over Rim Fin. Collecting since 1972.
