The Enigmatic Lincoln Cents of 1922
In The Enigmatic Lincoln Cents of 1922, renowned numismatic expert Tom DeLorey delves deep into the mysteries surrounding the Denver Mint's striking anomalies of the 1922-D and "No D" Cent varieties. With meticulous research, technical detail, stunning photos, and fresh discoveries, he uncovers the multiple factors behind these minting irregularities and introduces new theories that challenge conventional wisdom. Both captivating and thought-provoking, this technical masterpiece is a must-read for collectors and historians eager to unravel one of the most fascinating chapters in U.S. coinage history.For just over a century now, collectors of United States coins have been bemused, amused or just plain confused by the Lincoln cents struck at the Denver Mint in 1922. Some are perfectly normal coins with a crisp portrait of Abraham Lincoln, a strong 1922 date, and a bold D for Denver mint mark. However, some 1922 cents resemble hardened blobs of metallic goo, showing a weak, mushy portrait of Lincoln and/or nearly smooth wheat stalks on the reverse with hardly any detail. They might have indistinct or illegible obverse and/or reverse lettering, a date that is soft and blurry in various of its digits, and a mint mark that can range from slightly worn to well-worn to faint to very faint to completely missing. Some of these coins are so defective that they have become highly prized collectibles.The Enigmatic 1922 Lincoln Cent is the second title published under the new Professional Series--an essential collection for advanced collectors. Designed to elevate your expertise, this series delivers in-depth history, technical details, and precise pricing on specialized numismatic topics such as errors, varieties, and patterns. Authored by industry experts, each book in the series provides the knowledge and insight needed to take your collecting to the next level.
