Lincoln 192?

[BC1969]

I don't know what happened here.
The last digit in the date was eaten by a Sasquatch.

It looks like it was a 1923. It's odd that part of a digit would be wiped and the other half would look so clear.

1925. Took a hit.

Time for more coffee.

 

[BC1969]

You're wrong coffee boy!

 

[galenrog]

Wouldn’t be the first time. I’m married.

I still think yours is a 1925.

Time for more coffee.

 

[BC1969]

Lmao!!

Yep, 1925. Also, while I can't be sure, it appears that the Die Crack is a Lamination Crack/Split.

 

[BC1969]

I wasn't disagreeing about the date.
There is no indication that the coin took a hit.

Look closer at the "5" and you will see that the top horizontal (West to East) bar took a hit. You can see the moved/displaced metal and that the bar is now oriented West Southwest to East Northeast.

Tipsy huh! Did you spend some time in Germany und habe zu viel getrunken?

Just send a Dutch Bros gift card. Starbucks cards are burned, just like their beans.

Also, trifocals since 35. Bifocals for 15 years before that.

 

[BC1969]

I'll admit, everything is doubled up close. I have to really strain to see.

I say 1925, but took a hit PMD. The line of the hit is in the same directional from the tail of the 9, same as the top of the 5, however strange that the lower portion of the 2 didn't get hit but the top of the 2 did.

 

[eyemustdigtreasure]

My vote 1923.
Funny, the damage was only to the "2" and "3".
I see it as normal circulation wear, not mint error.
Good Find!

 

[Mackaydon]

I'd call it a '5'. The bottom of the 5 is flat, the bottom of the 3 is rounded up on the left side.
Don....

 

[enamel7]

It is a hit and a 1925. There's absolutely no doubt that this coin took a hit to the top of the 5 AFTER it left the mint.

Nope. No time abroad.
My grandmother insisted that me and my siblings know basic communication in 12 languages lol
Only my sister pulled it off.
She is fluent in seventeen different languages.
