Looks like a normal coin with a MAD rim on it. The 1973 cents were struck with more pressure, thus the deepness of the rim/gutter on them. I prefer them with the stronger rim. At least you know for sure they were fully struck.

Don't feel like an idiot, we aren't born knowing this stuff. Everyone has had to learn it.

Count the bays from left to right. Lincoln is always in the 6th bay between columns 6 & 7.

I've been waiting to see if anyone else thinks the inside of column 8 looks different, maybe it's just me.
