    Greetings, I have searched for this Lincoln cent till my eyes fell out of my head. On the reverse there are stairs going up to where Lincoln sits. I don't know what this is since I can't find it. And on the obverse is that machine doubling in Liberty. I'm wearing just to find out about the steps thanks for your help in advance IMG_20230507_172034939.jpg IMG_20230507_172325861.jpg IMG_20230507_171837086.jpg IMG_20230507_171631926.jpg

    There are parallel lines between other columns so my hunch is it's a unique plating issue. You could send images to James Wiles at Variety Vista and see what he says - he was quite responsive to me in the past.

    As @KBBPLL suggested, send it in for a close look from someone that specializes in varieties.
