1998 Wide head Lincoln Penny - Reverse

Sanity check, does Abe's head look a tad wide?

Anything else catch your eye?

The dark spot on the right looks like Lincoln standing and looking at his own statue. As far as Lincoln'r head..double die maybe?

 

It's a minor doubled die... just look to the right of Lincoln's left arm.

 

Overall I think he looks pretty beefy... but I'm the king of seeing phantom "errors". On a quick search, I didn't see a listing mentioning doubling in the head. I dunno, I'm a newb and I'm figuring this out as I go.

 

Hot diggity! Aren't you the observant one. The coin itself look like doo... but there was enough here looking at 10X to catch my attention.

 

If it's a D mint, it might be this one.http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1998&die_id=1998d1dr002&die_state=eds
