<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3571179, member: 15199"]How does the mint reinstall an ear? Do by any chance you mean re-engrave the ear? How did his nostrils on the same level and approximately the same level not need to be re-engraved ( installed) ? There is no history of a distorted Lincoln bust on a coin, the dimensions were set. Evidently you have a gripe with some grader or 'expert' who did not agree with you about the 1959 and the S you see as a modification remains of a series VII DD. It looks like pareidolia effect. I see the area you talk about, but there is no visible evidence in my mind that removal and smoothing was done by the mint, It looks like other small areas of the coin. Did someone sell you a mess of them and told you they could be resold for $$$$ ? Send one to PCGS or NGC , or even to another such that might give you an opinion. Seriously a lot of people have said no, and no one has said yes, so get an opinion you would accept. Best wishes, Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
