[QUOTE="alurid, post: 4563598, member: 81991"]In 1968 a new Lincoln cent master die was made for the 1969 minting year. The master obverse die used in 1968 was made in 1916 and really had been used to long. It is they reason the letters touch the rim of the coin. The new 1969 master hub is also the beginning of the lower relief dies. These two coins show the the difference of the new die. [ATTACH=full]1129836[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
