<p>[QUOTE="Pickin and Grinin, post: 3195201, member: 73995"]I think that the die stage of each side, is much later than the Mid die state that both VV and Copper coins provide. For reference [USER=96343]@Shrews1994[/USER] look at coppercoins. The Die markers I was looking for are the pronounced die scratches. When looking at the new images you provided the die scratches do not match. If there was one marker that could be found it would be the vertical die scratch on Lincolns nose. That area might have enough recess to not be polished away. It is pretty obvious from the new photos that this coin has seen some excess use, possibly even a clash from the looks of the different polish lines shown. The reverse in the memorial shows some lines that could be close to the markers on CC but the coin you have shows a much later die state. See the letters ONE, That area on your coin shows an extreme amount of Die Deterioration, (LDS) or terminal.</p><p>I like the MM placement it seems to match. You could always wait till ANACS has a special and try to get it attributed for around 10 to 15 bucks. Or possibly send it to Variety vista to get his thoughts.
