Found this yesterday and thought it may be a 1987D-1MM-016, however, there are or seem to be some differences.
At least to my eye, please take a look and see what you all think.
thank you and HH
Thank's Maineman, do you think this is possibly a new one? i don't know what to make of it. If it is that would be really cool, and the first for me too! I have Collected or hoarded several thousands of lincolns over the years since about 1964, and i do not really know what to do with the errors and varietys. I think it may be best to have them attributed and then they would be registered and attributed. i think i will wait and see what some of the members see on don't see on this coin.
I have much to learn, and here seems like the very best place to find out and ask questions.
By the way what are the very best books available for these varietys, i have studied the errors very well and own many different, but have much to learn about the correct nomenclature on all the varietys. I need much more information, so i will get up to speed on all of the new things and the correct terms too.
Yes,good idea to see what anybody else sees.
As for varieties and nomenclature...try this site...there is good info in the Lincoln Cents for beginners forum, but also much info on the non forum part of this site. I don't remember and specific titles right now except coppercoins "Looking through Lincoln Cents".I'm sure some others will pipe in with more titles when they read this.My memory is bad sometimes and I'm actually working at the moment
Well i am hoping it is at least it is a rpm i thought it was when i looked at through my scope at about 180x, still not sure, i love to hear from the rest of the seasoned collectors here.
Just wanted to point out that I was ignoring the plating issue on the south. I'm focusing on the bottom serif which appears to have a split similar to but not exactly like #016.
Eric thank you for taking a look. Took some better pics with different lighting and angles to look at it, seems it may help. i am hopeful this may work out.Sorry it took so long fo me to get the new pics posted.
