I realize the zinc pennies have been nothing but a headache to not only the mint but to this forum but I didn't even want to guess at the causes of what happened to this 2014 D and needed help. Ranging from possible rim strikes to initials and lower bust MD as well as the reverse. I put it aside and kept being drawn to it because of my curiosity of needing to know. I apologize if this is a waste of time and appreciate your patients. Thank you all
The Examination Room Patient: That sure is an odd looking stethoscope! Doctor: Oops! Sorry! I thought I was on the beach.
Doctor: So, you broke your right arm. Patient: Yeah, I don't know what I'm gonna do. I'm right-handed. Doctor: That's okay! I take credit cards.
True story: My wife and I were at the beach in the Gulf of Mexico 3 days later my right foot started hurting. I knew the pain and what it was but each day it got worse and I couldn't walk that good. I made a doctor appointment with a new surgeon as soon as we returned. I saw him the next day. He asked what was wrong. My reply was I need surgery, then I proceeded to be specific. When I finished he stated, "I'm the doctor, not you so I'll decide if you need surgery." He examined my right foot and the great toe, then he said he needed X-rays. I hobbled over to that area and they took them. He looked at them and said, "Sir, you are correct. You need surgery asap." A few days later the implant I had was removed and a new one was installed. Now I have plastic and metal in the foot but I can walk good. He asked how I knew and I replied, "I've been through this before. It's not my first time. I also have 2 implants in my left foot." I have 3 implants in my right foot and one of the implants shattered. The X-ray showed the broken implant but when they operated it had broken in 7 large pieces. The doctor said he had to vacuum the area to get all the small fragments.
Scenario; Make appointment, go to doctor's office. Placed in patient waiting room, nurse takes vitals, doctor will be right with you. Doctor comes in, makes greeting, and ask "what's going on today." If that's not a leading question I don't know what is, duh. Good luck Collecting Nut hope all is well.
Doctor: You need surgery Me: I'd like to get a second opinion Doc: Okay, you're ugly too. Then he asked me to stand outside his office door. When I asked why, he said: When they see you they'll get sick and I need the business!
Took my dog to the vet, He picked him up and proceeded to look in ears, eyes and mouth. Then he looked at me with a pained expression and said he had to put the dog down. Horrified I said why. He said because he is darn heavy.
All is good except for my left knee and I do need surgery. They just won't do it due to the virus. I may be forced to find another doctor to get it replaced. I'm bone on bone.
My wife had knee replacement surgery 6 months ago and it's still not healed. The doctor said she had to have the other knee done, she said, no way am I going through that again, I'll live with it, we'll see! Good luck Collecting Nut
Thanks. I have a total knee replacement on my right knee. That was about 10 years or so ago. This ones my left knee. It took me 8 months to recover and I still can't ride a bike. Just doesn't bend that far do I understand. Hinge joints are a lot worse than a ball joint. My best wishes to her.
And back to the OPs original post. I too believe it is due to a die that has worn, allowing the variations seen. It also appears that Lincoln had a tracheotomy recently. LOL
Guys when you go for the dreaded proctologist and he starts his exam, MAKE SURE both hands are not on your shoulders.
