bjsturg Valued Member United States 70 Posts	Posted 09/28/2025 8:15 pm Sorry the long brief: I believe new minted Lincoln Cent are single press? I was looking up close and saw LIBERTY on this coin and I'm not sure what is it that I'm seeing. From the first impression I see MD(x3?). Then there appears to be DD in LIBERTY and the LB initials on Reverse of the shield. The only reason I say DD is because the letters appear to be thick and there appears to be a line in the middle of the letters with the top left edges have the notch(?), not sure if notch is the correct phrase. I had read something in Wexlers about this. Anyway...I marked in two(OB/RE) pictures the lines in the middle of the letters and the notch at the top. The "B" in Liberty seems to be broken and looks like an "R". I think its PMD. I am probably very wrong about any of this and you input is always very good. TY in advance Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21606 Posts	Posted 09/28/2025 8:21 pm Looks like Die Deterioration Doubling. You can see the flow lines and the start of a Ridge Ring. This is another of the worthless types of doubling with no added value. Report this Post to the Staff
bjsturg Valued Member United States 70 Posts	Posted 09/28/2025 8:28 pm For when I wasn't sure of the correct terminology: Notch and split Serifs. I have another photo as well. I appreciate the help Jimmy. Ty Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19154 Posts	Posted 09/28/2025 8:41 pm I'm thinking a Die Deterioration issue, with perhaps a smidge of Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff
