Found this in change. Looks like a wave in the bottom steps, but who knows ? The pictures are; 1. The Lincoln steps. 2. An out of focus shot to help show the wave in hand. And 3. A regular cent with straight steps. Dave
Some years on these Cent ( Reverse ) were badly struck . If you can believe this, this coin is a MS-67+
Thanks for your reply Rick. Just wondering is your coin "raw" ? I have never been able to determine what those figures are on the steps. I always supposed they were people, but to me they look like urns.
