    Die chip was in Liberty. Was collectable back in the 60's and was advertised as the BIE cent. The should looks like a lamination.

    Nice combination.

    You have a 'BIE' Lincoln (fairly common for that era). It appears to be a lamination at the truncation of Lincoln's bust. The 'BIE' adds little to no added value but the lamination would be of interest to error collectors.
