Not intending to hi-jack anyones thread, I have posted this for others to compare your finds or likeness of this type of error. (Ref D-17)
This is a 1999-D Lincoln 1C Struck on a Unplated Planchet and weighs 2.4 Grams.
It is a graded MS-63 Mint Error.
This error can be quite deceptive when purchased, found, etc. There are too many in circulation that have been tampered with and sold as authentic Unplated Coins. Even for error specialists it is very hard to tell without the coin in hand.
P.S. I may have posted this coin in an earlier thread on the Forum and I apologize for referring to it again.
There is also a 1982 LD Partially Plated Thread in the Error section for comparison also.
