best choice of the above, for me, would be the flowing hair half dimes. Wow.

But how many can you get for the price of a set of Matte PROOF Lincolns?

 

 

???

I'm afraid I'd let the money sit for a while, and see what happens to the market.

 

If I forced to spend the money right away, I'd put it toward filling the two biggest holes in my type set, the 1796 not stars quarter eagle and the 1796-7 half dollar. Sadly the value of a set of Matte Lincoln cents, regardless of the grade would only be a drop in the bucket against those two. :(

a really nice xf/au original never dipped 1794 half dime wouyld be super cool to own but i bet they are almost impossible ot find and terribly undervlaued as they are small coins

 

a gem flyer a real gem fully struck evenly colored cameoed semi prooflike business strike coin with claims to ms66 i think is less than 1% of the current coins in pcgs/ngc gem holders

 

also most all graded ms 65 flyers are really not full true gems a really sexy unique american coin with the flying eagle obverse
