      I think he ate one too many chocolate chip cookies sold by the vendors there...

                I remember another thread long ago with a thick Abe, no clue of the coins year or where the thread is.

                    Obviously, the majority of the replies failed to address the OPs question rather than making a good hearted attempt at humor, both on this thread and the other one referenced.

                    It does appear to have some extra thickness. My educated guess would be from a worn die.

                      It could be either die wear or a minor amount of hub doubling. I would not be inclined to list it, though - too minor and no good proof of what it is.
