    Did a grease strike or the die chip cause Lincoln's Adam's apple and part of bow tie not to show? Looks like top part of vest as well. Come to think of it Liberty and date appear to have a slightly higher placement. But the number of dies used in minting process there must be subtle differences. Thanks.. 20211007_165419.jpg 20211007_163453.jpg Image_2021-10-07 16_37_27_299.JPG Image_2021-10-07 16_37_57_576.JPG

    Lol...the only reason it got my attention is because it gave me the illusion the planchet was struck at a slant and date along with mm were crooked.

    Date is normal-note mint marks were still hand punched into the die still during your coin time.They can be a little crooked etc its nothing really special unless a drunk employee,say punched it into the date or area upward:):).
