Gigi2 Valued Member United States 319 Posts	Posted 04/19/2025 6:35 pm Doesn't it look as if Lincoln is losing his toupee? I found this unusual on this 2001 cent. Anybody else ever noticed this? '') Report this Post to the Staff

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 04/19/2025 8:08 pm I agree with over polished or even maybe a little grease in that area. Report this Post to the Staff

Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10478 Posts	Posted 04/19/2025 9:17 pm Yes the "scratches" are from heavy die polishing and the "doubling" on Lincoln's head looks like MD. EDIT: Looks like "MD" isn't highlighted but maybe " Machine Doubling" is? Edited by Marv65 04/19/2025 9:19 pm Report this Post to the Staff
