    Here's a new one. I sure wish awesome coins would stop popping up when I shouldn't be spending.

    Lincoln Proofs Through The Years

    Interesting seeing how the detail was slowly lost on Proof Lincolns from the early teens to the 1960's -- then a somewhat more cartoonish redesign was done in 1969 -- which leads to the sandblasted finish the last few years, devoid of much detail. I wish they would return to the beautifully-artistic and finely-detailed rendition that they were using 100 years ago. This is one case where newer was definitely not better and improved.

    I got a SLQ Type 2 (non-recessed date) today!! Awesome toning and in Fatty Holder. Only downside, looks to be some mold growing on the label.

    This really ought to be its own thread and then "featured" instead of burying it here. Very nice work!!

    Reminds me of this thread from another CT member:
