Lincoln is trying to escape
This is called repousé. Somebody hammered the face out from the back side, you can find a variety of these on ebay
What a relief!
Indented on the other side, out dented in the picture!

That’s…impressive
It’s like that scene in Ghostbusters 2 when Vigo’s head poked through a bit, before he did come out of the painting, tried to possess a baby and take over the world.
I’d keep that forever.
Don’t worry, princess Leah is on the way
Keep it
It is carbonite. That’s the real Lincoln in hibernation.
Yeah I remember hearing about these. Â The mint was running low on copper and switched to carbonite.
Very cool 😎 made by someone very talented me thinks
Why is he facing a different direction than a normal penny?
Wow, that genuinely is mildly interesting!
The eyes really follow you 👀
When the blotter starts to kick in
Hey if I got shot in the back of the head I’d be very concerned with what’s happening behind me too
Repousse coins typically sell in the $15-30, but older is better.
A modern copper penny is probably less valuable than a Wheatie or Indian.
They often have pin backs soldered on and were worn like a brooch or drilled out to be a necklace pendant.
Is that legit? It could be worth a lot to a collector
Set him free
Abe got setup by Lando, damn yo. Put him in the cuprum and finished in zink, then he hit the ground with two distinct clinks.
What does the back look like? Can you post a picture?
He’s seen enough and is coming out to fix
He’s trying to come out and fix the current government.
That’s pretty cool
Holy fuck
free him
What the Han Solo is this?
That’s! Cool!
He should have paid the money he owed to Jabba the Hutt
Weird there’s only the one pic!! I need to see the other side
I’ve never seen one like that before. Pretty cool.Â
