I am back from the Virginia Numismatic Association where I set up as a dealer and the CONECA representative.
Show was kind of slow, so I concentrated efforts on getting CONECA a few new members. Time will tell.

I did have a man ask me if I wanted to buy an estate RPM collection. Though most of the big dollar coins are out of the set,
I had to buy it since it was all organized, detailed and categorized right down to the stage it is. I'd have to take wild guess and say there are over 1,000 RPM's and there are not many dupes.

I have come across a few bizarre ones, and this is the first one.

Looks like Lathe Lines on the Reverse to me ....

I can only bring up the image of the reverse face. At this point, I can't tell what's going on.

Looks like dome of the html code is broken and works on only a select number of browsers. Let me repost a few pics from my website.

Obverse looks flat, something going on with Lincoln's head on the neck line, almost like a lower plateau.

I respect all opinions and I agree - so far with Ski's assessment. The only reason I was hesitant to call out lathe lines /circles was due to the fact most of the ones I have read about were in the 1980's and 1990's. This one is significantly older and I personally have not seen many of these around.

The new photos make it clear that this cent was tampered with outside the Mint.
