Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
...Maybe it's just my old cataract eyes but I thunk I saw some notching.
as i should of waited to have this in hand with my digital microscope to peer in on this "L"...as it appears whatever this spread is...most pronounced there
i'll drop a close-up of that "L" when in hand
i do prize opinions on this machine doubling versus doubled die
sincere thanks all
<< <i>Arn't proofs of this era double struck? Could be a slight misalignment between strike one and two. >>
ALL Proof coins receive at least two strikes. Some get more depending upon the relief of the coin.
As for the OP's coin, it looks like it should be examined, in hand, by CONECA as there are some definite indications of doubling along with obvious machine doubling.
BTW, CONECA has 4 listings for a DDR on the Proof 1958 Lincoln.
The name is LEE!

not a DDR, but definitely some kind of parallel universe.
