[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 868084, member: 24633"]Hi, Charmy! You posted this at NGC, didn't you? First, the missing UNUM is probably from a grease-filled die. I mentioned in another thread that it is not unusual on Lincoln's because the incused lettering on the die is small and easy to fill with grease and debris. Also, note on the obverse between 3:30 and 4:30 which corresponds to that area along the rim appears to be messed up a little. This can be due to the fact that the extra metal which should have gone into the letters on the reverse had no where to go. As for the reverse rim between 6 & 10 o'clock, this is just my opinion, but it looks more like a rim break on the die rather than a defective planchet. Chris[/QUOTE]
