A couple things come to mind here for me. First, there are occasions where the experts (the folks who established the sites for DD attribution)...
I think you might have two things going on here. Grease and a weaker strike. Given that you have a full rim, this would suggest that there was...
http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1985&die_id=1985d1mm001&die_state=mds Nice find!!
I'm not real sure on the history only that they changed the mintmark at some point in the year to the small S. At 10M, that would be about 3...
It’s not a common find as you know but as you spot the different font it becomes easier. I’ve found about a dozen or so and at some point it just...
Large. Nice find!
I’m thinking it’s a DDO. The tails on the T and Y do appear as chips but the SW doubling appears adjacent to the left of the V.

Keep in mind that close ups may not be what the community needs to do a diagnostic. The best thing to do is to mimic photos that are published at...
Nice to pull a set from the wild! It’s about the process furry...the result is an ancillary benefit for you and the kids. The side finds add to...
I missed the part about the dog barking a clear warning not to place a variety cent on the rail.
I suppose that we’ve all been there at one point or another. We find something unfamiliar and begin to think we have something unique. It is, of...
Yes, a bit of a swing. Light side for the 40s and higher numbers for the 50s. Next box - buffalo!!
There was a thread for similar coin published here a week or so ago. What typically sells for around $7 at an LCS I frequent is one with a date...
Damaged by a washing machine is my guess.
You might have a problem. Good luck on the hunt!!
I think that our fellow enthusiasts have offered a reasonable explanation but I always suggest that a collector pursue all questions to their...
Separate names with a comma.
