MintedNotPrinted Pillar of the Community United States 1183 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 12:52 am The appearance/consistency of metal deformation on this era of Lincoln cents will never cease to amaze me. It looks more to me like molding clay than later alloys/memorial cents... Thank you, Hondo, Errers! Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95089 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 07:54 am with PMD, the area over the D confirms it with a bit of metal movement from the rim to the field. Collecting since 1972.

MintedNotPrinted Pillar of the Community United States 1183 Posts	Posted 12/07/2025 10:15 am Dearborn, I'm glad you put it that way specifically, as it explains to me just how backwards I was thinking about this. Thank you. I don't know what it is about wheat cents to my eyes... In my other post last night, what I thought was damage is suggested to be a strike through, here what I thought was a strike through turned out to be damage Edited by MintedNotPrinted 12/07/2025 10:17 am Report this Post to the Staff
