A Nicely Toned Proof Lincoln

[Newmismatist]

My Idea of what a Toned Proof Lincoln should look like!

Looks like a nice album tone without any problems around the rim, but then again what's a proof Lincoln doing in an album?

 

Perplexing.

Proof sets from the 30s & 40s were stored in small black cardbord holders with plastic slides about the size of a 3 x 5 card - I have a buch of those holders - they were in use until the mid 50s - Those holders caused lots of the proof coins to "tarnish"

Just gorgeous Ron. A bullseye in all the meanings of the word!

Well, you know, your right, those were those Alligator looking skin cardboard holders with silver print...haven't seen one of those in quite a few decades.

Agreed. But it isnt worth the asking price.
