Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

A couple fellows came into the shop the other day with a few '84s, a '67 Roosey, and said they were either missing the mintmark, or were doubled. I searched hard with a loupe through about a dozen coins and could see nothing unusual on any of the devices, motto, legends, dates, etc.,, except possibly a "struck through cloth", or the coin was in the pocket of a decomposing body on one of the '84s. I'd like to think it wasn't the latter, so I said the more probable cause; " it appears to have been "struck through" cloth". And happily on their way they went.
Mine matches the coppercoins image of the date, with the spread on the 4 easiest to spot. The largest spread is on the U in Trust. I've only got an AU and the strike is weak, so I really can't match the CONECA description very well. David

What makes you think that? They are the same.

Here's a pic of one I had slabbed:
(note, in my pic I labeled it wrong, it's 1DO-002 not 1DO-001)
If yours has a different mintmark position then it might be 1DO-001 or 1DO-003 or 1DO-004, all are similar to 1DO-002.

Maybe you have to point him to the Exact Page for Coppercoins DDO-001?
Although, it doesn't look like the OP's coin.
