    i went to the Lincoln Resource... nothing about small nor large date.
    Googled it and someone claimed they had a small date but provided no photo.
    I looked at some pics of other 1992’s and mine still looks different.
    Don’t know what I’m seeing! Am I seeing nothing special?

    Besides that, on the reverse, below the steps, is that a die chip or a gas bubble?
    As well, i tried to mark my flip with lines to determine if it’s a rotated die as it appears to me to be, but, that test didn’t work right, how else does one determine this more accurately? Off center to boot?

    Maybe my eyes are worn out from the day... 2 garage sale visits, no coins and the one lady I found that had a jar of pennies wouldn’t sell.

    Anyways... mother’s day tomorrow... happy mom’s day to all the moms.

    Pic 1 & 2 are of my coin and pic 3 is my coin next to a photo I found online.

    The two has always looked small to me on the 92s, but alas, that's how they come;)

    It was struck from different dies. And one had more die wear making the date look larger.

    Ok. Weird all the same just like 2001’s, the one seems so close and the whole look looks squished. Lots to learn... I guess it’d be easier with more Lincoln’s to look at. I maybe have in total, 40+ rolls of Canadians and only maybe 7 rolls American. Thanks.

    I’ve procrastinated about learning the steps in the minting process... maybe it’s about time I do. Thanks.

    You'll have another couple US rolls in a day or two;)
