<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ziggy9, post: 866111, member: 8360&quot;]The most simple diagnostic that proves this is not a dropped letter is the fact that there is not a corresponding letter of that size and form on the coin face. In order to have a dropped letter you need a letter in the die to become filled with debris and then drop on to the face of the coin. Since there is no &quot;S&quot; on the lincoln cent of that size and with that type serif it cannot be a dropped letter. It may be a struck through or could also be something that was done post mint, I can&#039;t tell from the photos which it would be.</p><p><br /></p><p>Richard[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
