The mail just came, and I got several proofs. It's been awhile since I've bought proofs as I've mainly been buying toners lately, but these coins are Lovely. At some point in the future, the good Lord and Bob Campbell willing, there'll be images of the coins. They are:

 

a NGC PR69UCAM 1962 Roosevelt,

a NGC PR68UCAM 1960 Washington,

a PCGS PR69DCAM 1968-S Kennedy,

and a PCGS PR69DCAM 1970-S Kennedy.

 

 

It's nice to get something cool and frosty after the heat of this week.

I convinced my step-father to get this for a side set we're thinking about building. It's partially just for bragging rights and as a conversation piece. It's currently the ONLY 1989 Lincoln cent to receive a STAR in any grade (God knows why). Maybe once I have it in hand I'll know why it was favored above all it's comrades. Any guesses?

I'll guess it's going to be prooflike in hand.

Taking the risk of following IGWT's fabulous nickels, here's the latest addition to my type set:

The coin is prooflike and the color a bit more subdued until you "flash" the surfaces. It looks to me a like a die that's seen a lot of wear but was lapped/polished and the polish lines and prooflike surfaces are the result.

 

Thanks Mr. Feld. :)

I just sent off payment for this. Once it and the 1932 P quarter arrive, all my father and I lack is the 1932-D quarter for our mint set (we won't be buying a double eagle for some time).

That looks like a nice example of that not-so-common Morgan, Dwaine. Are you working on a circulated set?

 

Very nice Morgan Dwaine and a super lincoln Rev. (thumbs u

Not really but I can't afford an MS example of this coin.
