This Lincoln is from a roll of 55-S LHC from CROCKER Bank, Sunnyvale, California. My guess is, the alloy did not mix well?
Thank you. There are another 14 from the roll that shows a progressive die deterioration on the reverse, left wheat ear. I will post it in the Roll Hunting section.
Yes you are correct, they are called that. Especially when the stripes are numerous and close together. I would dare say that each one of these is unique to this category.
This is a rare toning pattern and color that I've pretty much only see in the 55-S's. I'm betting that color is even more greenish and brighter that your pictures show. I found 3 similar coins in all my years of collecting and only seen other members post 2 or 3 since I've been a member here. CONGRATS on the find!
Thank you for your input. I really appreciate all that is shared. I learn more, and more, and more. And every once in a awhile, it is my turn to be presented with a small treasure.
