This looks to be doubling to the left of LIBERTY on this 96P Lincoln - opinions?

    Don't know the variety, but it doesn't look like machine doubling to me...

    That's a ghost image common to many modern Lincolns. Its cause is a matter for debate, either strike pressure or die wear, but definitely not a doubled die.

    Thanks for the responses Jeremy and C.D.. That one had me fooled, but now I know. Once again, thanks for the schooling C.D.. One day I hope to know 10% of what you know about Lincoln'simage
