Comments:  This variety was first reported by Delma K. Romines and was illustrated in my 1984 book The Lincoln Cent Doubled Die where it was listed as 1935-D 1¢ 1-R-VI.  It is also featured in The Authoritative Reference on Lincoln Cents - Second Edition.  The die marker photos for this variety were taken by John Bordner.
