dbrablec Pillar of the Community United States 1944 Posts	Posted 02/03/2010 3:09 pm i have found a 1999P lincoln, with a few oddities. I really dont know what they are. the first pic is to the right of column 9. there is some extra raise metal. this might be a die break. the second picture is between colum 7 and 8, and I dont know what it is. the third picture is in the column area to the right of the left planter, and again I dont know what it is. tere are two other area on the coin that I have questions about, but I can't seem to get a good image of them. any input is appreciated. thanks.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/04/2010 4:24 pm See if this helps? An overlay of the two dies on the position during a clash. The areas of the fields that touch the outlines of the devices are what makes the markings of the opposite dies during the clash. Report this Post to the Staff
dbrablec Pillar of the Community United States 1944 Posts	Posted 02/07/2010 12:34 pm the overlay photos were a great help. the marking on my coin do NOT appear to align with anything in the overlay photos. are these simply plating issues or what might they be. thanks Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/10/2010 10:03 pm Designs vary from business strike coins and proofs. The coin I posted was a proof. But the years/mint marks vary in locations of the exact devices from year to year sometimes. This is just to give you a ball park figure. But I feel it is from a clash. Sometimes clashes are off center when the die hit and throw the locations off some. Bit I feel it is from a clash from what I can tell. Report this Post to the Staff
