Mr.Bill347 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Pictures are bad, but I looked at my proof set, and this is a common problem for some years. Called Late Die State LDS, the initials are actually there but very faint due to weak die. I had to put mine under the microscope to see them. https://www.lincolncentcollection.com/novdb.php tj96 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldhoopster Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Could be due to excess polishing. Design elements like this are not added to individual working dies, they are on the master hub, so if was missing there, all the cents would be missing the VDB. Maybe a minor premium since it's a proof if you can find an interested buyer, but nothing rare or spectacular IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
