1908 Lincoln Cent??????

[West Jersey Detecting]

I cleaned yesterdays wheats and i found what appears to be a 1908 Lincoln. I can't find anything on pre 1909 Lincolns, Can someone help me out?

Interesting. Why does the 8 look funny?? Can you take a closer pic? The eight looks like it's black or purple looking

Neil? I dunno?

It had to be an indian that got punched with a lincoln die. Banner IMO? Did you find this in the Phillipines?

Ya gotta get the shading down a little better. Keep practicing with Photoshop!

Miscolored "8", poor linear pixelation. A little more practice should do it!
