Although I do think you would have a hard time finding a buyer for it unless you had two fellows trying to put together a mint set of those. __________________ Shawn Canadian Small cents : 108/124 87% complete Canadian Large cents: 44/56 78% complete Canadian Small cents MS: 64/124 51.7% complete W.I.N.S# 743 ENS Club Member   02-24-2009, 08:43 PM   #3 (permalink) mrbrklyn CEO of Brooklyn     Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: Brooklyn Posts: 10,092 My Mood: Blog Entries: 3 That is the weirdest picture of Lincoln I'd ever seen __________________ "The tremendous problem we face is that we are becoming sharecroppers to our own cultural heritage -- we need the ability to participate in our own society."

I'd be happy with an MS. The coin is a real beauty though, looks nothing like all my other large cents, picked it up at a flea market for 14$.   02-24-2009, 10:40 PM   #5 (permalink) the_man12 Amateur Photographer     Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Illinois Posts: 2,955 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by cerebus thx for the replies, my pic taking isn't great yet.
