Thanks everyone. It came from Bowers and Merena about 15 years back. I recall saying to myself at the time, "Man you are an 1d10t for spending that kind of money on a cent". laugh.gif

Look at all those scratches under Lincoln's chin. Obviously not a coin for you, I'll pay for you to ship it to me for melting. 893whatthe.gif

First off, great copper coins everyone. 893applaud-thumb.gif

 

Second, thank goodness we've moved into the 20th century, although I thought the rules were it had to be copying the exact same type and or date, so going from Shield nickel to Buffalo nickel isn't kosher.

 

Third, here's a (1957-D) Lincoln and then a switch to Ben.

SA-WEEEEET, Bob!!! 893applaud-thumb.gif COOL looking die repolish lines on the obverse.

 

Those are actually holder polish lines. Someone, I can't remember who, but it was a well respected member of this board and ATS, posted a remedy for getting rid of all the scratches on the holder. Well, you can see, it didn't work for me. I think that eventually I'll re-holder.

 

BTW - not a DCam, but an NGC PF68 Cam.

My bad. Yeah, now that I look under the BERTY in Liberty it's fairly obvious. Ah well, it's good to be reminded to be meticulous.

 

 

 

John,

That's a Gorgeous '63-D!!! 893applaud-thumb.gif

That is a nice 51 Bob!

 

Thanks, Bruce. Now believe it or not, but that one is a Ucam. Not a 68, but is an NGC UCam. Maybe for the year that is all the frost they need.

Saen - Good as Gold on that one. John, magnificent coin there, Sunshine I guess, and Bob, very nice 1951. In fact all nice Franklins there.

 

This one is less exciting appearance wise - 1956 Mint Set Franklin
