Never said this was a double die... The N was reengraved. There is an extra raised trio of lines inside the normal N where someone strengthened the relief. Kinda like the addition of the S on a superbird quarter. The lines are raised, not the obvious shelf like Machine doubling.
I posted this woody in the follow the leader thread a couple of weeks ago and I noticed it had a fair amount of dirt stuck to it so I threw it in some acetone for a week and this is the result.
Can I ask you Lincoln guys a question? I getting ready to post a serious Lincoln Cent question on a new thread. Who here in your opinions, are the go-to Lincoln guys? I would like to tag them on my thread. Thanks!
You found that? As in circulation? That would be amazing, it's a real nice 26S. Great strike and EDS. I like as an AU-55.
Thanks Thad! It will take me a day or two to get the thread and pictures ready. You'll be one of my go-to guys I'll tag.
Not yet Pickin. Getting my thoughts and pics together. When I start the new thread, I'll post the link here as well so it gets maximum exposure to the Lincoln collectors.
