be DDO to me. I've been trying to figure this one out. I'm thinking it could be the 1983 DDO 011 or 015. It has been a problem to get the lighting just right so I took a few pictures. I see lower right notching of the R in TRUST (not easily seen in my pics) and on all of LIBERTY. This Lincoln has a good degree of abrasion in many directions and die clashes in obverse reverse. This is why it's difficult to see the markers. Again I took a few pics in that it may help identify which die this is. Thank you!


BTW, Hope you've all had a great weekend or even as good as you hoped!!

on your pics. of course could be my cataracts. :bigsmile:

Yes, I did. But bc of the heavy abrasion it not easy to identify.

that can be very frustrating to be sure. the marker pics at the site are evidently from a mint or near mint state coin used to compare with so it shows much better details.

Busy....none of the pics are close enough for me to see anything. I think that may be why no responses.:)
