1948 (S) Lincoln Wheat Cent - Repunched Mintmark WRPM-023

Description

1948-S WRPM-023 is a repunched mint mark on the 1948-S Lincoln Wheat cent, cataloged by the Wexler team. Wexler describes it as S/S South: the extra S lies south of the primary. Obverse Stage A: light north-south scratches at the 19 of the date; a scratch running north from the nose's tip; and two close, roughly north-south scratches joining the jacket to the back of the head. On Obverse Stage B the Stage A scratches are weak. Wexler notes no prominent markers on Reverse Stage A. Reverse Stage B adds a small chip (dot) up and right of CENT's T. David Bloomberg submitted Stage A and David Mulberry Stage B. Wexler lists no cross-references.
