corkykile Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 For some reason I cannot get the picture to enlarge any farther than this and still see any distinction in the anomaly. I really do not know if this will be of any help. In this one it really does look like a D... dropped out of nowhere to here. Strange.

LostDutchman Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 doesnt help much... but it still looks like a part of a "B" neat lookin coin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dockwalliper Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Can we see the whole coin? It looks like it could be a "dropped letter" error. The D from GOD filled with grease and it eventually fell out to and impressed where you see it. Here's a pic of one I found online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dockwalliper Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 I just found the other thread and I don't think its the D from GOD, too small. Matt could be right, is is the right size for half of the B from LIBERTY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corkykile Posted October 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 doesnt help much... but it still looks like a part of a "B" neat lookin coin... Thanks... think I will keep it in my 'dkwii' collection (don't know what it is). I received two rolls of 1998 p's from the same dealer and found coins similar to others in the two rolls, but this is one of a kind from the two. I am now checking the 98d's from the same dealer and haven't found anything similar yet. I always think it is a big deal when one finds anything different in the coins after the big move to the single squeeze method. Just dawned on me... if it is a 'B', then from where would it have originated? Perhaps 'LiBerty'... hmmm, I did find a dozen or so of the 98 p's with the bottom of the B in Liberty that looked filled in with either die chips or maybe it was a die crack.

LostDutchman Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 can you get a pic of one of the filled ones??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coppercoins Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Corky - You were just told what it is. Why does it go in a DKWII pile? It's a struck through dropped filling, namely a letter. And I agree with Lost Dutchman in saying it appears to be the B of LIBERTY. I have some from 1995 around here somewhere. They aren't all that common, but they also aren't going to pay the rent - or even a gallon of gas...but they are neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use it everyday. Thanks for the kudos and confirmation on the dropped letter. I will keep it with the filled B bottom as a before and after example. Did you happen to see the one I posted after that? It is a 2000 p with a zero on his forehead. Nope, couldn't find the mate to that one. I have a pretty good camera, but it isn't quite macro enough to photograph some of the more unsual Lincolns I have found. Thanks again, to all of you nice people, Corky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
