  1. Haha you are funny RWB I just got of the hospital from a brain tumor and the best medicine is laughter. I will continue to do as I please, and educate my self from reliable sources. I appreciate your humor. Enjoy your penny collecting RWB.
  2. Oh my VBD is on his chest on the shirt of Lincoln. Let me take a new picture. hold on.
  3. I do have one more question. Why can I see the artist name,initials, on Lincolns chest on my coin but not the one posted above which is ,the uncirculated cent ,same year but mine does not have the mint mark under the date. Thanks
  4. Hoghead515 yikes, that looks very rough that penny you have .no my Grandpa would not give me a coin like that by that I mean like" here you go a penny for change". He was a very important man in Chicago his sister was married to Frank Nitti and my Grandpa Amerigo Caravetta was a successful business. man he wouldn't waste his time giving me a penny of little importance. He was an avid coin collector it was his only hobby. He was an amazing person.Thanks for your input though much appreciation. I enjoyed the information I think I will just keep my coins to myself and read the great information you have on here.Thank you
  5. just bob,I can't locate it. it is a possibility I have it mixed up with another coin. It is interesting the L on the coin posted above is not on the rim,edge as the previous poster said they all will be at this date. I love coins. I was born in 66 my Grandpa as I stated was an avid collector. He didn't find it on the ground,this penny he gave me, regardless it is a keepsake. . But it was fun and informative chatting with you all. good luck and well wishes on the fun hobby of coin collecting. Peace out Amerigo Caravetta
  6. Thanks JPM it amazes me how it can vary what people say but I appreciate what you say. This was given to me by my grandpa who was an avid coin collector It was not a circulated coin.
  7. well,thank you for that information Greenstang. This coin was from my Grandfather who collected it was not in circulation. Heritage auctions already gave me a good appraisal of 1200.00.
  8. Yes! VBD it is. I have many resources Thank you. My Grandfather was a great coin collector.
  9. I just researched and found out it is the engraver,designers,initials V is the first letter ,i was incorrect about that letter. Now how common is the error of the L on the edge of the 1955 no mint
