<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rascal, post: 1336284, member: 29239&quot;]Does your last name start with a N ? If It does then I think I may know who you are. When it comes to error or variety coin collecting it is a very small world. Some of us have been accusing the mint workers of making some die gouges on purpose,this coin may prove that is right if it is for real. I checked the mail today and it has not arrived yet. the thing that bothers me about keeping this coin is that the seller don&#039;t want me to take it out of the holder. What if this was the awful glue thing , I could not be able to check for that. hopefully I can determine what it is by looking at the coin while it is still in the holder.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only thing that has me thinking it may be a real mint error or die variety is the fact that 3 of the raised lines seem to go under one of the folds of Lincoln&#039;s coat and the bigger line looks to be under LIBERTY. the criss cross places where the lines cross each other appears to look good also.IMO some type of glue would be about the only thing that could look like this other than die gouges.&nbsp; I may lose my butt on this one but it wouldn&#039;t be the first time. I&#039;m trying to get out of buying very many common type things and just trying to get a few unusal pieces. It will be easy to tell for sure if this coin left the mint in this condition if all of the raised lines are die gouges. it could be possible for something at the mint to goof up and make these raised lines such as a ejector or feeder finger , this would have been before the mint changed over to the aluminum feeder fingers. then again like me and others are saying this does look to be intentionally done.&nbsp; Troy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
