  1. Looking for a nice BU example of the 1956-D Lincoln Cent RPM #1 in LDS with BIE. Thanks for looking...Ray
  2. It's pretty clear that they created a whole new galvano for this coin, and made lot of small modifications. Overall I'm surprised it is as close as it is to the 1921. I wonder if the original galvano actually exists? I'd bet the later low relief one does, but do we know the high relief one is still around?
  3. A while back I wrote a brief "OBW Roll Buying Guide" that is posted over on Lincoln Cent Forum. I talk about a few of the things to look for to make sure an "OBW" roll is actually Original. There are quite a few factors, take a look here: http://www.lincolncentforum.com/original-bank-rolls-obw-buying-guide/
  4. I just got back from a trip to SoCal to visit the Redondo Beach Electronics Swap Meet, and stopped into a few coin shops along the way. One shop had just purchased the inventory of a coin dealer who retired in the late 70's. My only buying interest is Lincoln Wheat Cent rolls, and they had a nice small hoard of them. I ended up getting 126 rolls from 44-S through 58-D, with a good quantity of 54-D, 54-S, and 55-S. About 1/3 of them are OBW, and there are also quite a few Meghrig rolls as well. I'm hoping for some nice varieties and toners in these rolls, and maybe will post some pics as I go through them. Wish me luck.
