I think it's cool

I like that the words on this coin still show in pretty stark relief while the bust on obverse is pretty worn.

I just love those chocolatey pennies!

 

Hmmm.. I'm not sure what you mean by pretty worn. It looks fine to me.

 

I guess it looks to me that Lincoln is pretty smooth looking and the words and letters look pretty sharp

 

Me too

 

Overall it's in real good shape. The busts were a little smoother back then, and the cheek and jaw, where the first signs of wear are, are holding up pretty fine.

 

I'm sure it's just that it's old and has gotten more wear.

 

I see. Thank you. I just think it's pretty.

 

Me too. Enjoy it.

 

Does the f and ONE CENT on reverse have very very very slight double die, or is it just because of wiping?

 

Thanks again

Looks like a solid XF to me . . . . . .

 

Looks like something behind the W the we to me , and maybe a tear in his eye !!!!!

 

I have found others where it looks very obvious that he's crying but I put them somewhere and can't find them! I think I posted one on here once tho. Thank you for the comment.

 

Ok. Thank you. I haven't been able to buy any books yet but I hope to soon.
