Maybe lamination defect?

    Yes, it looks like it from here.

    This is (hopefully) the wrong forum for such a senseless thread.

    So I go to edit my initial post when my keyboard batteries go dead. When I get back from Walmart with fresh batteries, I see that my fellow forum members couldn't wait to start hurling insults. Maybe a little patience before attacking in the future?

    Well you really can't blame anyone for their comments. It started off as nothing meaningful and was that way intil you were finally able to edit your post.

    @Mizzou... I see a dark area in front of Lincolns face.. Is that the issue? Perhaps a picture with more clarity would help us help you more. Cheers, RickO

    I believe your coin has a rather large lamination issue, it came from the mint that way
    Not much of a premium but interesting

    It's hard to tell in a picture but there's a vertical overlap running down the center of Lincoln's profile.
