1914-D Lincoln Cent! Its Fake, Link Added. (Its Back)

MarkW63

Look at the letters in GOD how stretched they appear!
Look at the hair around Lincoln's ear!
The far side of the bow tie!
The color, yes they can tone that way, but I've seen more chemically toned like this than natural!
Is the font used in the mint mark to wide and open in the center?
I've not checked the mint mark position yet?
I'm going to call this one a FAKE, but, I'd like to get other opinions before we go any farther with it

I just noticed something!
Look at the image of the reverse!
look at that inside line about middle ways up of the left wheat ear at the bump just a little higher than the U in UNITED.
That is a counterfeit marker that been used on LOTS of 09SVDB's?

This coin has fake written all over it. The lettering front and back look laughable.

You need opinions on this one?

BUS seems to taper off on the Rev or is that due to the uneven strike ?
Just asking this for my head. (research)

Sorry but you won't get it..... there's no corrosion on it.

Well, sometimes when I find these and I've got other things going on in a Honda department I quick few them.
So, I've gotten to where I can find these, screen grab the images, use my free download photo program that allows me to circle crop, then post and upload in a FLASH.
So, I didn't really see that counterfeit die marker on the reverse until after the honda/tire shop photo rich messages and I was looking back over the OP relaxing.
But, it is pretty bad isn't, it gets worse after you revisit it a few times
Here is the link to it!

Looks like the seller also sold a fake 3 leg and a 09 S Indian.

Might as well get one more while we are at it.

Well, it is still there... We need more reports I guess... It is clearly a bogus coin. Cheers, RickO

Do you have an image of a '09-S VDB with the marker @MarkW63 ?

Yep, sometimes that die marker is a little larger.
