Wide rim 1926-P Lincolns?

Mercfan

I found a beauty last night with a broad, flat rim a full millimeter wide for the entire 360 degrees of both obverse and reverse. The condition of the coin is VF-ExF. In checking on the Coppercoins website, I couldn't find anything that fits this description.

Anybody seen one of these or know of this variety?

Slighty broadstruck on a type 1 planchet??

Do you have an image?

I've got a new Kodak EasyShare Z760, but I haven't been able to figure out how to get a sharp close-up of a coin with it. If anyone can offer advice on the shooting I'd be delighted to create an image of this and several other interesting things I've found in the Syracuse Hoard.

Not sure of that model camera but if it's a digital camera just shoot, shoot and shoot to see what happens. It don't cost money if it's digital. If if has a removable card you may be able to upgrade it to be able to shoot thousands of pictures. Then just experiment. Try posting a picture of that coin even if it isn't the greatest photo. We'll understand.
