Since the coin was struck slightly Off-Center, you can see the actual rim of the Lincoln cent since it is shifted about 1% to the West Southwest. If the coin had not been struck Off-Center, then it is doubtful that any of the remnants of the denticles from the pre-struck coin would remain outside of the Lincoln cent rim! Although extremely weak and somewhat hard to identify, remnants of denticles exist and can be seen on the Obverse. Had the Obverse Die not been slightly Off-Set (MAD) from the Reverse Die, the denticles would be more visible on the Obverse. I have magnified the Obverse picture by 200% and I know that the denticles are there!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Frank[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
