    The metal from the "T" was hit and moved making it look like a "Y".

    Impossible to leave the mint this way.
    Most likely the T took a hit and looks like a Y.
    I have seen other coins like this that were photoshopped.
    This one appears to be damaged.

    You aren't the first person to post a Lincoln with this damage on it.

    You have to ask yourself, "If the Mint made this mistake on a working die, why aren't there thousands and thousands of similar coins in circulation?"
