<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coinman1234, post: 2131746, member: 51208&quot;]Not a real 14d, the date looks horrible, take a look at the area on the bottom of the left of Lincoln&#039;s bust, cents before 1917 (I could be off by one year but I think I may be correct) don&#039;t have a trace of the designer&#039;s initial&#039;s there, in 1917 they added a small VDB there. Noticed that it looks all scratched up in the area where VDB would be, the person altered a 1944d cent and scratched off VDB to make it look more authentic. The whole coin was then cleaned to give it an even color.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.scvhistory.com/gif/sg040806-coins.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>(Not my photo) <a href="http://www.scvhistory.com/scvhistory/signal/coins/sg040806-coins.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.scvhistory.com/scvhistory/signal/coins/sg040806-coins.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.scvhistory.com/scvhistory/signal/coins/sg040806-coins.htm</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
