Hi TXRanchMedic Sorry I ment my last post for you... Alan

Picked this up today at an antique store. It is a Lucite lighter. I only paid $10. It contains a 1945 dime, 1964 D quarter, 1947 half dollar, 1964 nickel, 1964 cent. The melt value is $14.75 so I did well.

Great looking coins Angelo. the 1895 is just awesome...Alan

 

I love colorfully toned Proof Lincolns and only accept ones into my set that I can get PCGS-graded as problem-free (in a feeble attempt to screen out AT'd coins). The end of the bronze (95% copper & 5% tin/zinc) run through 1982 is a tough era to find color; but I had a good week. I found a colorful PCGS-graded 1982-S on eBay last Sunday; then got grades back on the 1977-S, 1978-S, and 1981-S (Filled S) on Friday! Not too shabby. The 1980-S actually got the monster grade of PR68RB, which is a very high grade for an RB (color) coin. I submitted the new ones PCGS Secure Plus so they could be sniffed for illegal chemicals -- thankfully they all passed. Needless to say, these are TOUGH to find and get tougher as you move forward in time from 1982.

 

Wow!!! just beautiful thanks for sharing this amazing set... Alan

 

Two Morgans from an antique gallery.

 

Also, this Franklin.

 

I love the 1978-S and the 1980-S. The peek-a-boo 1976-S isn't bad either.
Oh yeah, I like the the 1981-S with the filled S also. ****, I think I like all of them.

Great colors. Mighty tough to find on these later years.

 

A common date, but I needed one and this one was irresistible.

 

3 more from my collection.

 

And another 3.
