Lincoln Penny missing the head of Lincoln
I came across this penny the other day when I was looking through my change. Has anyone ever seen a Lincoln Penny with the memorial on both sides?

I suspect it is a novelty two tailed coin, look closely with a loupe or magnifing glass around the rim ,, these are made by machining (hollowing) a penny out and fitting another inside it.
