Post your Lincolns!

Well here is my second 31 s purchased this year....the first is mia around the house...and cannot be found! I hope I get to keep this one a little longer.

Planchet lamination error

 

How about some red paint pennies ? Got any?

 

Die polish lines from hell.

 

1972 with faint red toning that looks like a "tape line" across the obverse. My guess is a piece of paper sat on this area.

 

I just added this group to my Lincoln Collection yesterday!

 

In the past year I was finely able to acquire that childhood bucket list coin!
You know the one?

 

Nothing wrong with that 72

 

These are recent additions to my Lincoln collection, I got these a couple of weeks ago.
My real Lincoln collection is RAW coins, but once I got it so close to complete I've been adding a few slabbed/graded ones to it.

 

A little over a year ago I had worked the date range down to one last Lincoln! It took me a long time to fill that hole, then on my first try I took a hit and ended up with a counterfeit. That was a hit I really couldn't afford at the time. But after I recovered and a year of learning how to better spot a phony 09SVDB I took the plunge and bought another one.
I'm pretty happy with this one.
It was PCGS Graded, I cracked it out so I could finely fill that hole in my album.

 

Nice!

 

I love that 1972. A special year for me

 

So glad for you. You finally crossed the finish line.

 

Now there’s something you don’t see every day

 

Well, you didn't say anything about this coin, but it doesn't look to be a VDB.
The Mint Mark font looks questionable?
Tell us a little bit about this coin?

 

I am always impressed by, and envious of, Larry’s coins, so here are my two 1909-S’s. The top one looks it has some wear on the beard, but since the silver color matches some toning in the obverse field at top left, I feel like it really is uncirculated and full red. The bottom one is MS65 RB CAC. I think the top one is nicer.

 

I assume you're aware that you have two different varieties, one is an earlier version than the other, NICE!
I have the two versions of the 1909P-VDB
