    Here's a raw 1954 S Lincoln I got several years ago. I'm not a serious collector of Lincolns, but when they look like this I'm happy to buy them. The images are by Bob Campbell, and I think he did an excellent job.

    WOW. Now that is one beautiful rainbow Wheat cent. Simply gorgeous! Interesting strike on the left wheat stalk (struck through grease?) - the right one is so well struck w/minimal wear.

    Yes to grease but it appears to have a die chip there as well.

    Oh gosh! Shut up! I think it's even following how the wood grain would lay, look at how it goes across! I could look at that all day...

    Very pretty indeed. Now, if only it would stop exactly where it is in this stage of toning.

    Wow! This one most definitely had me at "hello". The color arrangement borders perfection. Sweet cent, Skyman.
