Hello all, can someone tell me. If the upper lip on this penny. Is damage from the Denver mint? Or was it just a luck hot at the right time. And that's how an upper lip came about. Please Check out the pics. Thanks in advance
Oops , you must of doubled your pics upload . Anyhow, it looks like Lincolns giving us the tongue . It's seriously a damage area . Right in the perfect spot too !
Post mint damage. You will notice the other marks and dings in that area, however, I think that is a great coin to keep. It could be called a thin mustache or Lincoln wetting his upper lip. Either way, a good conversation piece. PS. A few less photos might be a good idea.
Wear and damage after it left the mint. Seriously. Did you notice the flat hair, ear, forehead, eyebrow, cheek, jaw and lapel? The lip took a hit along with all the other wear. You posted way too many duplicate pictures, wasn’t necessary. ...jmho...Spark
