1975 D Lincoln penny. Possible shallow Lincoln and grease marks on reverse of coin?
It looks to me Lincoln is a swallow strike and a general question about the sta and E. I run through about a box of pennies a week. I started seeing a pattern of the sta and E or of not fully struck. Must have seen 15 to 20 examples all the same. Could that be where the grease build up or a weak spot that daily use wears there easier? Thank y'all very much with help on all my post.

Struck with a grease filled die or the design was polished off when the dies were polished to preserve their life.

As with your 73 D these are struck through filled die and are very common and not collectible to the masses unless you like it yourself.

I recommend researching "Incomplete Design Features",
