1909-S Lincoln Wheat Cent

I've never had a S/S, so I'm coming here hoping to find out if this is a true S/S or a messed with MM.

What do you think?

I see something to the right f the S, but that die crack and the wood grain are both very distracting. I'm afraid I can't tell with any certainty.

 

+1

 

Looks like the S took a hit. It doesn't match the known rpm's

 

Check for the die crack .

 

possible S over Horizontal S, but need clearer picture

 

here's pictures of the entire coin, both sides, the pics above are the best I can get to show the detail.

 

This help at all?

 

It's there .
Nice RPM .

 

You can see the crack, real good in this one .

 

so is it the S/S or S/Horizontal S?

 

Yes it is .
Looks like a late die state too .
That crack isn't visible til stage C .
By stage D, the doubling is Very weak, for the secondary mintmark – VLDS ..

 

S/over horizontal S.
Nice!

 

Looks good to me

 

I don't see it

 

Do you see the die crack on the reverse?

 

yes, very faintly
