Okay, it is a very small extra column, hardly worthy of note.



However, it is on the same die as this!



That makes it kind of special for a wide AM 1998 Lincoln cent.

It makes for a pretty easy marker to identify it. Great find!

Forgot to mention that I am shooting with a new camera. Jeanie got me a Cannon A720, 8.0 Mpixels.

I guess a few extra pixels does make a difference (was using a 1.3 Mpixel)

I guess "size" does make a difference! Twisted Evil

Very cool find BJ. I really never looked at the columns on my Wide Am's. Maybe I ought to!

I think they had a DDR on a proof with a similar doubled column in 1998 (or was it 1999) that looked like that.
