Lincoln with PMD or something else??

ManorcourtmanManorcourtman Posts: 8,440 ✭✭✭✭✭
Ran across this in my junk penny stash. Looks like PMD or scratches but several of them are actually raised lines. Almost like they were in the die. Any chance it is from a cancelled die?? Nonetheless whatever it is it was done a long time ago! Interested in what the error experts have to say about it. Just a little something to make you think this morning!

    Looks like a cancelled die, although I doubt it is. I dont know any PMD that can account for raised marks though.

    Looks like the raised metal is the result of the lines scratched into the coin.

    Just moved metal.



    PMD

    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    Hobo Penny....

    Each "raised line" is next to a cut into the coin...

    Raised line is metal being pushed around just like making a Hobo coin.....

    The raised lines are caused by an instrument

    similar to, if not exactly, an Exacto-Knife.



    If you look closely with a magnifying glass,

    I guarantee you'll see the line INTO the

    surface of the coin, that caused the raised line.



    A very common occurrence, although I'll say

    this one has more of 'em that most I've seen.

    Actually, after taking another look,

    you can see the line I mentioned

    on TOP of the lines in the left field,

    and on the RIGHT side of the

    lines in the right field (obv.)

    The raise came up when the chisel went down.

    I just read Fred's post - so now two expert opinions leave no doubt.
