Greaser Lincolns

Found 2 Lincoln Wheaties roll searching that I think are grease filled die coins. After posting these pics does anyone else have grease filled Lincolns?? Would love to see other pics. Liberty kinda gone and 8 gone on the other.

I have a bunch, I save them all. But they are in unsorted stacks all over my desk atm. Both of yours look like greasers to me.

 

Thanks for the reply! I don't know if they are worth anything but cool to collect.

 

I see them often fetching $5-15 high end, on the bay.

 

Whoa - can we actually say "fetching" with these PC idiots now a days???

 

Agreed Markus, greasers. Nice finds, always worth setting aside.

 

I kinda like that word: "fetching"

Sounds southern gentlemenly.

 

Tommy - you are a great man - love to read your posts. Thank you for your posts and replies!!

 

What is a greaser penny?

 

A coin that is produced after the working die(s) gets clogged with debris causing parts of the design not to be transferred to the planchet during coining.

 

Got it. Thank you.

 

Let someone tell me I can't.....

 

Here you go, generally the only ones I found worth keeping are missing a lot like this one:

 

Those go right into my error bag, too.
