Another from the two rolls of fresh Lincolns. This might not be a real trail die because the lines are horizontal across the letters on both lines of the motto. Let me know if you think it is o is not a trail die.

This one I don't believe to be a trail. I notice this on many coins, seems to be a common occurrence at the motto, just about always though it in the direction yours is.

I've been curious why these lines occur here so frequently... must be something to do with the close grouping of letter on the die that causes weakness or something of the sort... strangely enough I rarely see breaks at this location...
hmmm

You do good, Jean. You're finding them. Major, minor, wannabes--I just dump mine into a padded envelope and send them to that feller in Florida and let him sift through
them anyway.
