Phoenix21, thanks for the thread and thanks for all the great photos everyone.
This variety is featured in the latest issue of Billy Crawford's Die Variety News Magazine.

I like the purple tone on this one - came right out of an older crappy PVC type album. The reverse has splotchy tone-

Man, very sweet Lincolns all! Wow. RLM, I'd say a MS-67 IMHO, atleast a 66 if not a 67. Nice Lincolns all, I hope to get some pics up of some more of mine tonight or tomorrow.

I think it is every bit a 67. I have one grade 67 by NGC and it beats that coin easily - IMHO. BTW, it costs me $5.20 - I assume because it is in a NTC slab.

Here is one I almost forgot about. I missed most of the color on the observe, but got most of it on the reverse. PCI calls it 67 reainbow. I thought that they were nuts, but the more I look at it, it might just make 67.

Nice coins for sure guys, I love it

I will be looking at a DINO cam at the ANA show, I guess if I like it I will get one. There are several threads about them on the PCGS site and from what I have seen, they rock.

Actually, they are not - these are just really really bad pictures in the gawd-aweful lighting & setup I have available. In reality the 09 is very nice looking other that the spots, and the other two are quite dark with just a bit of luster remaining. They don't look much like the pics, this was my first attempt at photographing coins - desk lamp, pocket digital camera in one hand and magnifying glass in the other for zoom lens lol

SEE PAGE 4 of this post

Sorry this is out of order, but I love this posts and check it regularly. I agree with Jack. The 09 S VBD is harshly cleaned with lots of carbon spots (wouldn't suprise me if it got near a grand on ebay if for sale), 14 D was harshly cleaned and 31 S doesn't look bad but hard to tell from the pic. All key dates though so still worth some money. Just MHO.
