    the mint sneezes a lot, most new cents have those same spotsimage

    its nice when you find errors tho.

    is it from a roll? or circulation?

    Good eye on spotting that cud in Abe`s hair.
    Not sure why Lincolns come with those
    horrible black water spots these days.
    And like those pesky milk spots on silver proofs,
    you cant get rid of them without destroying the
    coin. So until its numismatically exceptable to sandblast
    away surface imperfections, we`ll have to just live with
    crappy spotted coinage.

    Cool find, my eyesight negates me from searching cents for goodies.

    That's really cool.

    Hope for the best on e-bay. Not sure that is really the right place for this though. Finding error collectors on the BST might bring in a little more.

    1 to 3.00 is what I see them sell for.
