1953-S Overstruck Penny?

I overlooked this coin while roll hunting a few months ago.Luckily I decided to look back through some previously sesrched through pennies again. I am certain something is going on but I can't exactly tell what is going on with the overstrike/strikethrough. Any knowledge shared on this would be greatly appreciated. Also i adjusted a couple photos to try and bring out what I am seeimg

Can you be more specific as to where this anomaly occurs? I see no signs of a strike though. All I do see is a stain in 2 places on the obverse.

 

I see some damage ie scratches.

 

Circulation wear..
I see a normal Cent that was struck on a Blank Planchet.. Not overstruck on anything alse.

Welcome to CT @Jacobr0808. I too see nothing different on your cent. Also, it is generally better if you post your photos FULL IMAGE (after uploading your photo, two choices appear below it, thumbnail and full image, click full image and your photo will show up on the post and be easier to enlarge and see). Post full (cropped so little distracting background shows) and correctly orientated, obverse and reverse photos and then close ups of areas you question. You will get more responses this way. Many here don't like to, or won't click on thumbnails or links to see photos.

 

I'll post some better pics asap

 

Nothing out of the ordinary that I can see, will wait for better pictures.

 

SOMEthing does look amiss on Franklin Delano Lincoln's ear - can't get my finger on it tho' ???

 

Did I miss something? I thought Lincoln was on the Cent.

 

I think you did miss somethingand Lincoln is on a cent. You are correct with both your statements.I have been trying to upload more pictures all afternoon without no luck so far

 

No, the coin is well circulated. Not overstruck. You are seeing what is called perodolia.
