    Lincoln went on a bathroom break..




    It's just an overpolished die issue.
    No premium for that.

    I'm at a very worn die being used. Enlarged there is a lack of detail across the whole reverse. It is missing the detail on the insides of all of the columns and at the top of every bay. Compare this one to a well struck coin and you will see what I mean.

    Thanks, I did see that before, I was hoping I was wrong, sort of figure it may be over polished, wish they counted as Mint errors, seeing how its part of the process, but that's ok!
