Just took these tonight. Hard to get good lighting because it's not flat, it's concave obv. It's quite large and well blowed up, especially Mr. Lincoln. i believe it to be a die cap stuck to the rev die while the obv was pounded away by plachet(s) to make him huge. There should be some brockages out there to match. would be cool to find the matching brockage.

Searched through bags and bags and then bought it at a dealer.

Your description is accurate. This is a reverse die cap. It was struck at least twice, once normally and a second time out-of-collar beneath a blank planchet.
