[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3428111, member: 15199"]Some one was possibly trying to make it look like a cent struck on a reeded dime planchet. but after see how difficult it was and how easy to tell it wasn't they gave up. Fred has an very good example on his website [url]https://www.fredweinberg.com/product/1937-lincoln-cent-buffalo-reeded-edge-set/[/url]' where someone apparently used an old reeding machine to make some for a coin show. But be aware well over 99 of every 100 modern cents ( for me since 1909) that have physcial problems that could not be a mint error or variety is a fake job.
