2000 Cent Broad strike?

Found this Lincoln today. I think it’s a broad strike.

Thanks! Dang I got that completely wrong.

 

It looks like a Misaligned Obverse Die which created a larger gap between the bottom of the bust and the rim. On a centered broadstrike, you'll see a wider gap, but more uniformly about the circumference of the coin.

 

Thank you

 

Ok,it might be a micro mad.

 

I’ll take that!

 

LOL - micro mad. Or just a little mad?

Yes, minor MAD with no real premium. What always popped out at me during a CRH event was the larger gap between the bust and the rim. But unless the cent was a larger diameter, just misaligned.

 

Thanks again

 

Has some die deterioration as well.

 

Just a normal zinc cent with issues. Hard to fine in circulation.

 

That gap is also seen on broadstruck coins, Just for fun. I always look for a split collar in the most expanded area. Just to make sure.

 

Oh @PamR I was so rooting for you to be right this time. Dagnabit! Keep looking and good luck.

 

Lol!!! Almost. But the eye is getting a little better
