is this a MD "in God we trust"?

Looks like someone dragged a sharp object across the coin.

 

Not your typical MD.
It will be interesting to hear what the Copper Heads have to say.

 

It's the master die doubling of 1972. It's on over 50% of all 1972 Lincolns minted, spanning all three mint marks. Scroll to the last listing on the link below (1972 1¢ WMDO-001 Doubled Master Die). It will explain it all.

Thank you

 

Thanks for the education Jay.

 

Master die doubling. i find tons of 72s with that D in GOD. When i search 72s, that the first thing I look at. If it has that D, its a sure bet nit to bother searching the rest of that coin, because no DDOs from that die.

 

Well, atleast the dies that only have a little doubling of the date, or the bottom of the L in LIBERTY. Not sure it the better doubled dies are from this master die?
