    Here are the 1947 PDS coins for my toner Washington 1940 - 1964 Dansco set. This is meant to be a fun inexpensive project, so I'm looking for nice but not killer (expensive) coins for the date/mm. IMO the P mint here could have been in a mint set, and then was at some point in a roll, hence the reverse linear features. The D was most likely in an envelope, and the S was most likely in an album. The images are by Bob Campbell and I think he did an excellent job.

    An appropriate obverse design for a coin that could be issued in 2026 for the 250th anniversary of Independence.

    @gijoe76 coin

    Here is a quick shot of this, I hear @robec is going to get to photograph this beauty at some point. My pics will be the understudy. :D

    The deal with CAC and MS67 lincolns in NGC plastic is that they have to be absolutely radiant with luster. A clean mark-free coin is not enough. I think I have finally learned this lesson. Many NGC MS67 1C just dont CAC for this reason. I think it has less to do with RED coins becoming RB over time, for instance, in the old FATTY holders. I have sent alot of Lincolns in for myself and others, and very clean and red looking coins have failed. The ones that explode with luster seem to pass.
