    It's probably a greaser, but would you say that this is a weak strike? Looks like the same area is affected on both sides in the same area on both sides.. kinda wondering how grease could get in the same spot on each die. IMG_0170.PNG IMG_0169.PNG

    Grease filled die, common but a cool find!

    If it were a weak strike Lincoln would not look that sharp in detail.

    Did you check the thickness? It might be a tapered planchet.
