1979-D Cent, Split after the Strike, Attached

1979-D 1C Lincoln Cent--Struck on Split Stock, Attached--AU58 ICG. This Cent partially split in half along the edge after the strike. A thin strip of metal from the interior of the coin continues to join the two halves of the Cent together, although the obverse and reverse are separated vertically and horizontally by several millimeters. The Cent itself has toned mostly brown but retains some original gold color. Lincoln's portrait has faint rub and there are handling marks in the field near his profile. The reverse has a whisper of verdigris.
