I’ve looked at the sites for these but was unable to match it up. Thanks

Nice find... By the looks of it yours could be CCs 00 (https://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1939&die_id=1939p1do005&die_state=mds)5... Your primary eyelid has taken a pretty good hit but the shape of the secondary eyelid looks rite... Your close up is a bit blurry but it appears to have some of the die scratch remnants just east of the eye so yours could be a LDS... Yours also has the funny looking edge on the forehead like CCs 004s (https://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1939&die_id=1939p1do004&die_state=mds) does onto the nose... Hope that helps!!!

Thanks Jim, That is great. I even looked at cc’s. Overlooked that one. Thank you for the help. It looks like what I have.

edit: ooops I went directly to 005 without finishing your comment. Yes it very well could be 004. I will have to compare and see which fits the description. Thanks again Jim!

With the shape of the secondary eye and if the scratches are there it will be 005 (https://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1939&die_id=1939p1do005&die_state=mds)

Thanks Jim and Larry, I’m away from home for a few days so I can’t check on any coins until I get home. I will double check on those die scratches. I appreciate both of you taking a look.

edit: Larry I have become very aware of the eyelid area after your eyelid posts. Thank you for posting those.
