lower right notching on R in Trust and of LIBERTY (on all letters) but that chip is in the way to confirm the die. New die?! I pulled this one and the other 83 I just posted from rolls this weekend I got at the bank. These rolls all had black magic marker strips down in a column (like this l l l ). In these rolls I also found possible DDO 88's I still need to confirm. This is not the first I get such marked rolls. Im thinking they are from a collector (??). I say this because when I unroll them all I get are variety date Lincolns. First time I got marked rolls I got a pretty nice looking 88-006 and 88 DDO and nice wheats. I get the rolls from the same bank but different branches. I'm getting the feeling I'll need to send these to Bob. Thank you for your help!!

Don't rule out the existing dies just because of the die-chip.
It might be a later die state/stage than the ones in the listings.

Interesting about the roll markings. I remember getting rolls with an X and thought X = "already searched" :LOL_Hair:
