Description: A CW spread from a pivot at about 6:00 shows
on USA, the designer’s initials, the right base of the Memorial, and EPU. A strong Class II spread towards the center
shows on ONE CENT and USA.
Die Markers: Obverse Stage A: A short, heavy die
scratch extends NE from Lincoln’s eyebrow.
Obverse Stage B: The die
scratch from the eyebrow is still visible but it is much weaker. Reverse
Stage A: A small die gouge can be seen curving towards the roof of the
Memorial below the N of UNUM. A die
scratch runs SE from the lower right N of UNUM to the roof of the Memorial
below the M of UNUM. A short die scratch
runs NW to SE to the right of the statue’s head. Reverse Stage B: The
doubling has a “mushy” appearance. All
Stage A markers have been abraded away.
A small die chip can be found at the top of the 11th Memorial
column. A die crack runs down the edge
of the right cornice and down the 12th column.
Comments: Since appearing in
the 1984 book The Lincoln Cent Doubled
Die few specimens of this variety have been reported. We have yet to see an uncirculated specimen
of Stage A. There is a possibility that
intermediate stages may exist that might show a weakening of the Stage A
markers and/or die clash marks that may have led to the heavy abrading seen on
the current Stage B listing for this variety.

Comments: There is a possible similar die gouge between
E and N in CENT for 1964D-1DR-001, though it is difficult to compare the
doubling due to the size of the Coppercoins photos. If a copy of either die is found, it likely
could be determined if these coins could be the same die.
